Windows 10: Bitlocker enabled automatically when booting Windows from an alternate Drive and no key was...

I am using a DELL laptop and I have recently replaced the SSD inside it with another. In order to complete the file transfer, I moved the data to an external drive, booted Windows from it, and transferred the contents of the drive to the SSD. The SSD is completely functional and completely allocated. However, now when I go into file explorer, my D: Drive 1tb Hard Drive has become encrypted. I did nothing aside from boot the computer from a different drive with the exact same contents as it started.Upon looking inside my Microsoft Account, there is no key to the BitLocker encryption. I also s

HELP: Automatic BitLocker Unlock.

Please help,
Looking for a way( script or maybe some unknown windows command or registry hack) to automatically unlock a non OS BitLocker encrypted drive on Log-In.

My situation: Right now my OS SSD Samsung 840 Evo has a boot password, its not Bios option nor windows eDrive but the third one, the one you need 3rd party software to activate it, had to purchase EMBASSY Security Center to do it.
No issues here, the OS drive is locked and encrypted.

One of My HDD Drives is encrypted with Bitlocker, so every time my PC is booted, I need to enter windows log-in password and then open my computer and enter another password to unlock the drive.
Whats worse is that unlike the SSD that needs unlock password only after full shutdown the Bitlocker needs it every log-in.

Windows has an option to Automaticlly unlock all BitLocker drives on boot, BUT the issue here is that this official option only works if your OS drive is also BitLocker encrypted and then log-in password unlocks everything.

Im looking for maybe a windows Script or some Hidden command to automatically unlock the BitLocker drive.

Even if it Sounds insecure like having the actual password somewhere in the registry, text file or script I dont care because the OS drive is encrypted and passworded.
Also I have a TPM chip I can encrypt any file/folder so even if file is copied from my PC when its fully unlocked the files wont be readable anywhere unless unencrypted before.

If its important im on 8.1 pro 64bit

P.S. If there is no solution for my problem then my only choice is when windows 10 comes out to do a clean install on another Samsung 840 Evo that was previously cleared and eDrive option enabled


Thanks in advance.

 

HELP: Automatic BitLocker Unlock.

Thank you sir, ill try your solution.

Windows Auto unlock ONLY works in case you have Bitlocker on your system drive, because if your system drive is not encrypted auto unlocking other drives means loss of security.
But in my case my system drive is Encrypted with hardware encryption that i password unlock during boot. So auto unlocking Bitlocker drives will do fine for me.

 

Preparing Automatic repair on boot when bitlocker is enabled

Hello, I'm having trouble getting bitlocker to work on my new drive.

The drive is Intel pro 6000p, which is a self encrypting drive. I have eDrive enabled and did a fresh windows install on it.

I then enabled bitlocker with a password, so to integrate with the self encrypting feature. I could confirm bitlocker was enabled by entering "manage-bde -status", which reported hardware encryption and protection on.

But after that, whenever I boot it just go straight into "Preparing Automatic Repair", then follow by enter Bitlocker recovery key screen. No prompt for a password.

I tried repairing it with the Windows media and the correct recovery key, but automatic repair was not successful.

I was able to get back into Windows, by unlocking the drive in advanced option-->command prompt, using "manage-bde -unlock C: -pw". The system seems fine so I don't think there is a corruption in file. After disabling bitlocker in control panel (or
via command prompt) the system boots normal again.

Note: Fast boot is OFF, CSM is OFF, secure boot is ON, no other drive is present.

Please I need your help. I did everything clean and tidy, I just want it to work!
