    Bit Locker

    Dear Team,

    Windows 10 OS Crashed.But when we try to recover its showing drive is locked.We are not enabled any bit locker option .

    As per my observation previously after installing the OS all drives showing Lock Symbol.kindly suggest if any Default Password to unlock the drive.

    Windows 10 is OEM with Dell
