Research direction
The report compares hidden volumes created with VeraCrypt 1.25.9 on Windows 7 and mounting behavior in 1.26.24 versus 1.26.29 on Windows 10; it does not name files or tests. Start by comparing changes between those versions and tracing the hidden-volume mount path, then reproduce the failure with the reported version and system combination. Done means hidden volumes mount normally in 1.26.29 while regular-volume behavior remains unaffected.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Because we need to use both Win7 and Win10 systems, hidden volumes created using version 1.25.9 in Win7 can be mounted normally using version 1.26.24 in Win10, but cannot be mounted normally using version 1.26.29. Regular volumes are fine
