    but the volume appears as the pic

    2. restarted my pc and tried using a method that i've seen in a topic opened here which is using disk part > setid=07 override

    but nothing happend.

    3. tried to decrypt the disk using manage-bde command but i kept receiving an error which is invalid parameter.

    The problem is all my work is saved to that encrypted disk, i have no extra backup so it would be great if i resolve my problem.

    Thanks in advance!

    EDIT 1: am using windows 11 with AMD tpm, the disk is encrypted using bitlocker

    Bitlocker encrypted disk suddenly disappeared

    Cannot decrypt the disk encrypted by BitLocker

    While I was decrypting my disk that I had encrypted using BitLocker, the laptop suddenly shutdown and then I lost access to the disk. The system isn’t accepting my correct password and code. Windows 10 requires for credentials, thinks
    for a while and then closes without giving the access to my disk.

    I use Windows 10 pro. Help me please. I need to regain access to my disk as soon as possible because I have lots of important information there
