Why does VeraCrypt not work on Ubuntu 18.04?
VeraCrypt was apparently installed during the upgrade to 18.04, but won't open documents. VeraCrypt icon showed up. I tried uninstalling, then reinstalling VeraCrypt, and now the icon is gone, and typing 'veracrypt' (or 'sudo veracrypt') in the command-line now returns "command not found"

Try downloading the package from the official website, extract the package and do asudo ./veracrypt-1.22-setup-gui-x64for the graphical GUI setup. Worked for me.

Thanks for your response....my problem turned out to be that I had to install the package libexo-1-0 which for some reason was not included in the change to 18.04, at least in my case.
