    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

    :)

  2. How to turn bitlocker "again" on a drive which was previously bitlocker decrypted? Please Help!

    Hi,

    Device encryption helps protect your data by encrypting ("scrambling") it. Only someone with the right encryption key (like a password) can decrypt ("unscramble") it.
    • Sign in to Windows with an administrator account.
    • Go to Start, enter encryption, and select
      Change device encryption settings
      from the list of results.
    • Select Manage BitLocker, select Turn on BitLocker, and then follow the instructions.
    Also, please refer to the below link and check if it helps.
