I am totally lost here, a beginner with the command line, not very knowledgeable about Linux (or any OS) and out of my depth. I'm more of a hardware guy.
I installed Mint on my entire 1 TB drive and encrypted the entire drive with TrueCrypt during Mint installation. Now I find I have to install Windows on the drive in order to use some hardware that doesn't have a Linux compatible program and the Win program won't run in Wine. I don't know how to even find TrueCrypt (no listing in the Menu) so I can mount the volume, decrypt it, resize a partition and install Windows. Option?: move everything to my external drive, wipe the drive and install Windows and re-install Mint? I don't know what encrypted data may not be visible to me now and I may lose it if I mess up.
Can anyone help?
