I decided to use the BitLocker feature that I wanted to use from Vista Ultimate, which was incredibly dificult unlike BitLocker in Windows 7, which is extremely simple to use. So simple in fact, I encrypted my external hard drive Verbatim 160 Gig where the original BACKUP files are with ALL my original documents, settings and files of the company are located. I haven't used a USB key, or don't have I recorded the RecoveryKey, I printed and completely loses it, I remember perfectly well the password I used. Problem is I have NOW, I can't ACCESS MY HARD DRIVE! When I try to access the hard drive it asked me not the password recovery key. Please help me, im in deep poopie.

The problem is that I've NEVER stored on this particular external hard drive recovery key. BTW: I tried to follow the steps mentioned by Mr. Vijay but inconsistent tool with my operating system (Windows 7 64-Bit) it only works with Vista (not 150 percent certain but close). Please correct me if Im wrong. I wish I could change the world, if only I could find a diapper big enough to hold so many things...

  Hi yogesh,

  I understand that you would like to know how to retrieve the BitLocker recovery key manually and I'll be happy to answer your query.

  (Repair-bde) BitLocker Repair tool is a command-line tool included with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. This tool can be used to access the encrypted data on a severely damaged hard drive if the drive has been encrypted by using BitLocker Drive encryption. Repair-bde can reconstruct critical parts of the drive and recover recoverable data until a password is invalid or the recovery key is used to decrypt the data. The Repair-bde command-line tool is intended to be used when the operating system does not start, or when you cannot start the BitLocker Recovery Console. If a drive is physically damaged, it may not be recoverable.

  I would ask you to see the suggestions in the article below and check the status.

  'You must supply a BitLocker recovery key to start' message appears sporadically and I get the following screen: Bitlocker of Windows Driver - information encryption system boot information changed since Bitlocker is enabled. You must supply a key to have Bitlocker to start this system. Confirm that the changes to the system boot information are allowed. If changes to the system boot information are approved, then suspend and resume Bitlocker. This will reset Bitlocker to use the new startup information, if not restore the system boot information.

• BitLocker recovery key queries every time

  I use Windows 7 x 64 RTM on my ThinkPad X200T. Everything is fine except that the Bitlocker asks the recovery key at every startup even if I use the TPM module.

• Switch Cisco 2960/3560 = &gt; recovery password and default settings with the button Mode

  Hi Experts,

  I have some confusion with the button Mode with cisco 2960/3560 switches.

  I read on many forums and articles, but where things are not clear.

  a place given 3 seconds and somewhere is given 7 or 10 seconds.

  Qus1), what is the exact time to press/hold Mode button to perform two following tasks:

  A. password recovery (according to my knowledge 3 sec) good or bad?

  Configuration of the switch (start + run) would be safe

  After the recovery of password? Yes or no

  B. factory default (according to my knowledge 10 dry) good or bad?

  I'm afraid, because if I press mode button more than 3 seconds, then

  It will delete any configuration of cisco switch. Yes or no

  Qus2) I want to recover the catalyst 2960/3560 switch password without

  Start/run configuration to lose. That is my main concern.

  Please tell me how to do this, what will be the time keeping Mode buttom

  in a few seconds?

  Qus3) which means this line

  "If the password recovery mechanism is disabled in switch

  then you will lose all the config.

• Helps the recovery password or reset

  Hi, I know that you must of course this a million times but mine a little different.

  I forgot my password for nearly 3 years and yet I always use my laptop every day, how?, I use the connection of fingerprints (Sony Vaio - z series)

  Now the problem is lately the fingerprint drivers failed during startup and and I was stuck, does not what to do, fortunately I just did a restore but I don't want to keep restore whenever fingerprint drivers fail.

  I tried a number of password recovery tools, but none have worked so far.

  I use WIN 7 professional 64 bit.

  Can someone please.

  Concerning

  It is pure lucky! You should do that now:

  1 log on with your fingerprint reader.
  2. click on the start planet.
  3. type cmd.exe in the search box.
  4. press on Ctrl + Shift + Enter
  5. click on "run as Administrator".
  6. type the following commands and press ENTER after each:
  NET user "user %%nom" 123456
  (to set your password to 123456)

  7 plan ahead a little and create, test and document an account admin spare, even something that you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.
