VeraCrypt script stopped working after update to VeraCrypt 1.25.4

[Change Agent]

As said, VeraCrypt script stopped working after I updated it to latest version of VeraCrypt (VeraCrypt 1.25.4), I presently use version 12.4 Update 8.

I have the following script that worked fine under the above mentioned version of VeraCrypt but stopped working when I upgrade VeraCrypt to the newer version (VeraCrypt 1.25.4). I use OS 11 by the way and presently have reversed back to VeraCrypt 1.24 as I need the encrypted/decrypt files almost on a daily basis.

I found the original script a while ago on the MacScripter forum and must admit that I do not understand all the steps it makes, even after reading the posts in it. However, it worked so I used it ever since as it makes login into a file super easy.

As said, I am not very good at scripting and there could be no way I would be able to write this type of script on my own. I hope somebody out there can help me out here.

Any ideas why it is no longer working? Is there anybody out there that uses VeraCrypt_1.25.4 and can help me to get it to work again?

use AppleScript version "2.4"
use scripting additions

       end tell # window "VeraCrypt"
   end tell # process VeraCrypt
end tell # Application System Events

delay 50

tell application "VeraCrypt" to quit

The script hangs on the line:

if class of UI elements contains value indicator then --> {value indicator, button, button, button, button}

The error message I get is:

error "System Events got an error: Can’t get scroll bar 1 of window \"VeraCrypt\" of application process \"VeraCrypt\". Invalid index." number -1719 from scroll bar 1 of window "VeraCrypt" of application process "VeraCrypt"

I hope somebody can help me out here, because I am stuck with it.

Thanks.
