Yes, there is. If you have not done so yet, upgrade to TrueCrypt 4.2a or later. Run TrueCrypt and make sure the option ‘Never save history’ in the main window is enabled. If you do not want to enable the option ‘Never save history’, you can avoid using the Windows file selector by dragging the icon of the container onto the ‘TrueCrypt.exe’ icon (TrueCrypt will be automatically launched then), or dragging it onto the TrueCrypt program window. Likewise, a keyfile can be selected by dragging its icon onto the Keyfiles window or onto the password entry window.
