How to view and edit photos on windows without leaving a trace? in c/windows@sopuli.xyz

Thanks! Putting everything into a VM is actually a nice idea. Then I would just need to encrypt the hard disk file of that VM, and things should be simple. It creates a larger file though, but that is probably manageable.

That's actually an interesting point. But how do you ensure the same under Linux? Doesn't Gnome or KDE also track recently opened files somehow?

How to view and edit photos on windows without leaving a trace? (lemmy.zip)
 

I would like to do the following on my windows (10 or 11) computer:

  • Move photos from an SD card into a mounted veracrypt volume.
  • Edit photos inside the veracrypt volume using RawTherapee.
  • View the edited photos inside the veracrypt volume.

I would like that whenever I unmount the veracrypt volume, there is no trace of the photo files left on the computer.

I already noticed that the "recent files" feature of windows explorer stores the path name and a thumbnail of a picture that was opened with photo viewer for example. That is not good.

Are there other pitfalls like this I need to watch out for?
