The order in which system favorite volumes are displayed in the System Favorites Organizer
window (Favorites > ‘Organize System Favorite Volumes’) is the order in which the volumes are
mounted. You can use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to change the order of the volumes.
A special label can be assigned to each system favorite volume. This label is not the same as
the filesystem label and it is shown within the VeraCrypt user interface instead of the volume path.
To assign such a label, follow these steps:
1.
Select Favorites > ‘Organize System Favorite Volumes’.
2.
The System Favorites Organizer window should appear now. In this window, select the
volume whose label you want to edit.
3.
Enter the label in the ‘Label of selected favorite volume’ input field and click OK.
Note that the System Favorites Organizer window (Favorites > ‘Organize System Favorite
Volumes’) allows you to set various options for each system favorite volume. For example, any
of them can be mounted as read-only or as removable medium.
Warning: When the drive letter assigned to a system favorite volume (saved in the configuration
file) is not free, the volume is not mounted and no error message is displayed.
Note that Windows needs to use some files (e.g. paging files, Active Directory files, etc.) before
system favorite volumes are mounted. Therefore, such files cannot be stored on system favorite
volumes. Note, however, that they can be stored on any partition that is within the key scope of
system encryption (e.g. on the system partition or on any partition of a system drive that is entirely
encrypted by VeraCrypt).
To remove a volume from the list of system favorite volumes, select Favorites > Organize
System Favorite Volumes, select the volume, click Remove, and click OK.
