Windows 10: Bitlocker encryption on non-os drives

hi,


I have tried to recover windows due to an operating system corruption. Then when I was trying to log in I was said that there is a bitlocker encryption. I was able to recover that by logging into Microsoft account.


However, still my non-os drives D: and E: are encrypted. I have tried the same encryption code that I tried to decrypt the computer C: drive, but it says that the key doesn't match.


Please help me on this since I have some important documents in those drives.


Thanks in advance.

:)

Bitlocker Drive Encryption

Recently I was attempting to encrypt my drive with bitlocker because windows was suggesting to encrypt them via the security page when logging into my account. Though, when I do attempt to encrypt them with bitlocker it states that my drive is already
encrypted via bitlocker. I was wondering if there was a different way that it needs to be set up because I was hoping to add the extra layer of security to my drives with bitlocker encryption and password protecting them via a recovery key.
