    Bitlocker - The parameter is incorrect


    I have one data drive that is Bitlocker protected and it has always worked fine. Now it seems to unlock, but when I try to access the drive I get "The parameter is incorrect". The am running Windows 10 Pro 1607 14393.105.

    Does anyone have any suggestions before I pull out the drive and try it in another machine?

    Drive is not accessible. The parameter is incorrect

    Hello,

    Thank you for updating us on the issue.

    You get an error stating drive is not accessible, the parameter is incorrect. It’s indicates either hard drive corrupted or permission issue. If files are not executable, you can check for permission.

    Please follow the steps below:

    How to check permission for external hard drive.

    1. Right click on the external hard drive and select properties.

    2. Under security and make sure that the drive is not under sharing mode, it should be under your ownership.

    You can also click on the sharing and check.

    Please reply us back after performing the steps. We would be happy to assist you further on the issue.

    Hardrive not accessible. Parameter is incorrect

    Hi Mohanmehra,

    Sorry to hear about your issue.

    Try the following method:

    1. Plugin your device(it can be your External Hard Drive, USB etc) to your PC.
    2. Open the Command Prompt. You can press Windows Key + X command and select Command Prompt.
    3. Now, type chkdsk E: /f /r. Here, ‘E’ can be replace with the Drive Letter of your external device connected.
    4. The above steps will run CHKDSK to check and repair File System Corruption, errors, corruptions or bad sectors on your device which might be causing such error – ‘Drive Is Not Accessible. The Parameter Is Incorrect'.

    Hope the above information will help you.

    Good Luck!
