Knowledge Point Analysis:
To protect the data, BitLocker is encrypted for the E disk. But after reloading the system, E disk will not be accessible. Double-click E disk and no password input window pops up. Right-click to choose Unlock Drive has no response!
If you experience this problem, you may not be able to eject the Password input window and access the data when you reload the system or remove the hard drive that contains the BitLocker Drive Encryption or move the hard drive to another computer.
Operation Steps:
In this case, you need to unlock the drive using the Administrator command and recovery key. The specific actions are as follows:
In the Start menu, turn on All Programs > Attachments > Command prompt. Right-click on the command prompt and select Run as Administrator.
If a user Account Control (UAC) window pops up, please allow to continue.
Type the following command at the command line:
Manage-bde-unlock E:-recoverypassword Hu Jintao
(Here, E represents the drive letter that needs to be unlocked.) )
Note: the "Hu" section is a BitLocker's recovery key instead of the password we set ourselves (the yellow area below), and note the spaces.
Reminder: After BitLocker encryption is released, it is a good idea to unlock the drive and then reset BitLocker encryption again to avoid future occurrences of the password window being ejected.
