Research direction

This is a user asking whether to install VeraCrypt 1.26.31 before the Windows 11 26H2 feature update; no code change or test is identified. Read the release note quoted in the issue and check the project's upgrade guidance for the recommended order. Done means providing a clear answer that accounts for the warnings about staged support files, recovery backups, and the Rescue Disk.

Description

hi , i have 1.26.29

windows 11 version 26h2 is waiting to download and install

i read on the releases:

Upgrade note for system encryption: Install the updated VeraCrypt before preparing a Windows feature update, and resolve any Windows update support or original loader backup warning. If Windows Setup has already staged support files, restart feature-update preparation so it stages the updated files; installing VeraCrypt does not replace a previously staged script. Preserve existing recovery backups and a known trustworthy VeraCrypt Rescue Disk. Changing an old backup's ownership or permissions does not establish that its contents are safe.

i install 31 first and after windows version 26h2 ?

thanks !
