    How to recover data from a BitLocker Encrypted External HD?


    I was encrypting my external HDD using Bitlocker. At about 50%, the cable got unplugged. When I connected the HDD again, it says the drive is locked. When I enter the password, it does not accept. When I use the recovery key, it does not accept it as well. Bitlocker has corrupted my HDD and years of data. I&n

    how to recover data from bitlocker encrypted drive without the key?

    I don't believe there is a way of doing this, that's the point of encryption to prevent this sort of activity. If you have no way of getting the key I would suggest restore from backups.
