Need correct syntax to use manage-bde command to unlock bitlocker encrypted drive

My laptop hard drive is encrypted. I am prompted to enter a bitlocker pin at boot up. It gets me to logon screen. I am trying to use manage-bde command to unlock my drive. What is correct syntax for entering the pin?

I tried manage-bde -unlock c: -password

than I entered my pin but it it did not work.

When I tried manage-bde -status,

I see the Key Protectors as

TPM + Pin

Pin

Numerical Password.

 

GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile

 

Stop forcing us to use a dang pin.

I think you are referring to BitLocker PIN, here are the steps you can take to remove BitLocker PIN.

You must have administrative rights on your machines to execute this command and this requires a functioning TPM:

1. Right click on the Start Button.
2. Select either Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
3. Copy and paste the two commands (get rid of the quotes)
   
   "manage-bde -protectors -delete C: -Type TPMAndPIN"
   
   "manage-bde -protectors -add C: -TPM"
4. Reboot to ensure the PIN is no longer active.
