Hi,

On one HP Elitebook 850 G8 with Win10 21H2 Enterprise (from a local domain, with some GP) I had 2 encrypted drives (C: & D:):

I decided to change the capacity of those drives, so i deleted the D drive, shrink the C: drive, created the new D:drive and then encrypted it (using cmd manage-bde -on  D).

I have some issues and i don't know how to fix them:

  1. On D drive, the Protection is Off .. can i turn it back to On ? (maybe using a command ?)
  2. The Encryption method on D drive is XTS-AES 128 .. Can i change it into XTS-AES 256 ?
  3. Is it possible to select the Encryption method when i start to encrypt the D drive with manage-bde command ?

I'm using that manage-bde command, because in our network i haven't access to other options (the site for recovery keys, is managed by other dept.)
