I installed a new virtual machine with Windows 21H2 today, hosted on Hyper-V 2019 server. Gen 2 (UEFI), installed VeraCrypt 1.25.9, and tried to enrypt the system partition. Turned off Safe Boot after being prompted to restart. Entered my encryption password during the system test and succeeded with that.
Expected behavior
After restart I expected VeraCrypt to encrypt the system
Observed behavior
Instead got an error message "The VeraCrypt system encryption pretest failed. ..."
And w.r.t. the notes:
the boot loader did ask and claimed authentication succeeded.
I selected AES
Did n´t find something on troubleshooting.html that did help me
Steps to reproduce
See above intro

Your Environment
Please tell us more about your environment
VeraCrypt version: 1.25.9
Operating system and version: Windows 21H2 19044.1288
System type: 64bit
Motivation
I am using Bitlocker in general, but wanted to test compatiblity of my own software with VeraCrypt. In particular I am wondering whether there is an easy way to check that the system is encrypted using VeraCrypt, similar to manage-bde -status c: .
