Both statements are true:
1. 3 dashes are 1 too much
2. 1 dash is 1 dash missing

The only correct number of minus symbols (dashes) before the name of the (long) argument is 2.
Just have a look at the --help output.

It clearly says that the command line parameter is --veracrypt-pim followed by the number
e.g. --veracrypt-pim 2406

mm sry never seen that third dash my bad Sad
Im think im almost there, i have one more question do:

So to create the raw file the command is? (using ddrelease on windows)
ddrelease64.exe if=hash.raw of=MyEncrpytionP1.hc bs=512 count=1?


Or should it be the other way around?
ddrelease64.exe if=MyEncrpytionP1.hc of=hash.raw bs=512 count=1?


And i create a file called hash.raw?



and finally:
hashcat64.exe -m 13721 -a 0 -w 4 --veracrypt-pim 2406 -o hit.txt hash.raw dict.txt

This one. With the other one you might destroy your veracrypt volume. if=input file, of=output file

thank you so the rest i posted should be ok aswell?
hashcat64.exe -m 13721 -a 0 -w 4 --veracrypt-pim 2406 -o hit.txt hash.raw dict.txt
instead of running it directly of  the veracrypt file?

Once agian sorry for all the question just wanne make sure im doing thing as it should, trying this for almost an half year now Without success. Today i just got some extra hope 

And its also correct to create the hash.raw manually, right?

So i should be good to go

here the example shows a = sign. does this mather?

    --veracrypt-pim            | Num  | VeraCrypt personal iterations multiplier             | --veracrypt-pim=1000
#25
One-character parameters (single hyphen) don't work with equals signs, but multi-character (two hyphens) should work with equals signs.

Code:
$ echo blah | hashcat --hash-type=1000 --stdout
blah

$ echo blah | hashcat -m=1000 --stdout
The specified parameter cannot use '=1000' as a value - must be a number.
