Hi!

I have a ciphered TrueCrypt volume and I don't have the password, but I have the masterkey.

¿Is there any way to open it with masterkey? I have seen this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=256sg1HDCh0

but I don't know which version of TrueCrypt he's using.

Can it be done?

Thanks!

The person in the video is using a modified version of TrueCrypt. Apparently modified by someone by the name Liqueur.
It is probably not trustworthy or even available to download and run on your computer.
Instead you could try

https://github.com/AmNe5iA/MKDecrypt

or

https://github.com/4144414D/pytruecrypt

Both should allow you to mount using the masterkey.

Hello!

With pytruecrypt I run (under "examples")

python image.py key <master_keyfile> <volume_file> a
Traceback (most recent call last)
File "image.py", line 71, in <module>
from pytruecrypt import *
ImportError No module named pytruecrypt

a is for AES.

With MKDecrypt, i run

python MKDecrypt.py -m /mnt/raw1 <volume_file> <master_keyfile>

File "MKDecrypt.py", line 204
print('Scanning byte ' + str(i*512) + ' of ' + str(evsize*512) + ' using' + crypt, end=' \r')
^
SyntaxError invalid syntax

I'm unlucky…. (

Thanks!

pytruecrypt you have to install dependencies.

mkdecrypt needs to be run on linux (debian, ubuntu, kali…) and the latest version requires compiling a kernel module.

If you are definetly dealing with truecrypt not veracrypt then you can use an old version that doesn't require the kernel module but it will still need to be run in linux.

I am running them under DEFT (Linux based).

I'm dealing with TC. Not VC. I'll try that older version.

Thanks!
