Windows 10: how to decrypt the disk encrypted with Bitlocker for good

Hi.I have a very important issue. I wanted to use my disk with my friend's professional computer. We couldn't save any files on it without encrypting it with BitLocker. We weren't aware of what this software is so we did it... And now I can't run this disk on my Mac computer. Is it possible to decrypt this disk on my friend's computer with Bitlocker so I can get my files back? I know I can download the third party software for my computer to decrypt it but they are so expensive... I wondered if I can just undo this stupid mistake. I would be so grateful for your help... Thank you.

Bitlocker Stuck Decrypting

For future reference, instead of using the TASK MANAGER to restart, you can simply hold CTRL + SHIFT and right click on blank space on the Task bar, to bring up 'Exit Explorer'.

Another option is to use software.

Cannot decrypt the disk encrypted by BitLocker

Hi Tom,

Please follow this guideline:

Method 1: Plug in the drive to your laptop and check if you can decrypt it. This shutdown might have been caused by the battery.

Method 2: Following the steps to decrypt the drive:

1. Login, then connect the disk to the computer.

2. Right-click cmd.exe, then select "run as administrator" to launch the command.

3. Type in the following command and press Enter:

manage-bde -off d: (Note you should substitute ‘d’ for the correct drive letter.

You can also get in touch with Microsoft support here: ‘Microsoft Commercial Support’

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
