Hi, I tried lock one of my partitions from an external hard drive(HDD), but the process was not finished, it only about 70% of the process completed and suddenly my computer crashed(it was first time my laptop crashed!), now i cant access to my locked partition, even i know the password and i have the recovery key, when i write the password or recovery key nothing happens just processing.
my device is Hp ProBook 4540s
I tried this in my power shell
manage-bde -status G:
the output is:
Size: Unknown GB
BitLocker Version: 2.0
Conversion Status: Unknown
Percentage Encrypted: Unknown%
Encryption Method: AES 128
Protection Status: Unknown
Lock Status: Locked
Identification Field: Unknown
Automatic Unlock: Disabled
Key Protectors:
Password
Numerical Password
is there any solution please?
