I forgot my recovery bitlocker drive encryption key. Help, please

I forgot the Bitlocker drive encryption recovery key... Help, please

THX,

Ashish

Say goodbye to your data.

You'll just have to reinstall and reactivate your license.

If you don't remember the 48-character encryption key (which would be) or you did not write it or not create a USB encryption key to decrypt the drive at startup, then you experience the effectiveness of encryption.

Sincere apologies.

  • What happens if I forget to remove my key (Flash DRIVE) storage media after the Bitlocker Drive encryption key is responsible?

    I'm new to BitLocker and don't know much about computers in general. I do not have a TPM, so I use a USB key containing the BitLocker encryption key to start Windows. Everything works fine. I don't, however, forgot to remove the USB after that and also when you restart the computer. This could be a security problem if I am connected to the Internet? (I'm alone and therefore am not worried else wanting to access the computer in person.) I'd appreciate any help I could get with this question.

    Hi Tombroilt,

    If you are only using the computer, then it is not a security problem. If you connect to the computer. I suggest you to see the following links for more information.

  • BitLocker Drive Encryption

    Hello

    I started the encryption on my Win7 Ultimate. that day I locked and unlocke with my password. Afetr that I reinstalled Win7Professional. but I coudnt unlock this drive. Then, I asked the question here, in this community. They said to re install ultimate again and try to remove the encryption. Then I tried now. but tell her again the same tha the password is incorrect. The bad news is that I lost my recovery for the encryption key. Please help me with this problem. I have a lot of important things in this player.

    Thank you...

    We would agree with what said that Frederik Long . BitLocker is used to encrypt your files and protects your data in case your device is lost or stolen. The only way to access your files on this disc is to enter the Bitlocker key or password. If you don't remember what is it, you must accept the fact there is no other way to access it again, unless you had the key to recovery for this drive.

  • How to restore a full backup of the Server 2008 system that has been stored on a BitLocker Drive encrypted?

    I have a requirement to encrypt my server for transport off-site backups, so I'll try to store my backups to an external drive that is encrypted for BitLocker.  I am doing a test restore to a new drive to simulate a full system recovery, but I'm unable to unlock the drive encrypted with the backup of the prompt under system recovery options.

    I have confirmed that I can unlock the drive from a command inside the original Windows installation prompt using manage - bde.wsf and the recoverypassword, but the same command does not work from the command prompt during the recovery process (started from the installation DVD).  There is no error code, a single message that the recovery key did not work and administrator privileges may be required.

    When you try the same command from another server when connected to that drive, I got an error that can be informative, code 0 x 80310037, implying that the recovery key may not because of the FIPS compatible algorithms that are needed.

    I'm looking for something that isn't possible trying to store the complete system on a BitLocker encypted disk backups?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Thank you best regards &,.

    Sourav Dasgupta

    The computer will boot with the hard drive stolen?

    No, it won't. However, the more important question is: can the thief the disc? For an authoritative answer, you must perform this simple test:

    1. Connect the drive as one secondary drive to another machine.
    2. Start Windows and log on to an admin account.
    3. Check if you can read data on the second drive.

    If privacy is important, so you satisfy yourself with the answers of the interviewees. They might, or are may not be incorrect. You must do what would be a thief.

  • I need to move my pictures from internal to external hard drive... help please!

    Hello!  I use a MacBook Air OX Yosemite 10.10.5.  I need disk space and have already been warned that my drive is full.  I've immediately backed up using Time Machine.  I don't have that 4.94 GB of free space on 499,05 Go.  104.26 GB is GB 161,97 movies and Photos.

    I went to "Images" then "photo library" and touch "control C" then I opened my external HD (it is formatted for Mac) and click on "order V.  It seems that he just copied successfully.  I have verified this by clicking on each of them, then 'control' 'get info' and looked at the amount of GB each had and it's the same thing.

    My question is threefold > r: I did this right, it's the best way to ensure that all the photos and videos copied on correctly? and b: How can I remove my internal now 'photos' and use my hard drive every time I open pictures?

    and finally c: This means now that my photos will synchronize is no longer?  It's fine for me if they don't synchronize... I can do it manually, but I'm curious to know how it works if they normally go to all devices, but now is not on the internal hard drive.

    THANKS FOR MANY WHO ANSWER CALLS TO HELP ME!

    A. you did it right. You just had to copy the library of Photos to the new location, but do not delete the old library until you've checked out the new one does not work correctly.

    B. open the Photos while pressing the Alt key and search the photo library on your external drive. Choose and check that all your photos are here. After you be sure that you can remove your in-House photo library of the folder you stored it (usually the pictures folder).

  • Unable to send emails with photos. Msg text is received, but pictures are encrypted. Help, please.

    Whenever I have send email with attachments of photo or photo the receiver responds that, although they could read the text, they were unable to see the photos. It happened all of a sudden for a few days ago. So I'm unable to send postcards because they received are encrypted. Please help - thanks.

    You use Outlook?  If you do not use the RTF format, as then the recipients cannot read your images and attachments.  Either use plain text or HTML format in Outlook messages, but not in the RTF format.

  • Stuck in Safe Mode - Vista - viruses? Driver problem? Help, please

    I'm operating Vista Home Premium and only the system starts in Mode safe.  Several vertical lines in a model of 5 show on the screen as it tries to start. He is stuck in a loop of repair of unsuccessul attempts but I can't us F8 to go into Safe Mode, no problem.

    Normal system repair did not work. System Restore to a watch in which the system was working did not work (went back 2 weeks).  I thought it might be a video driver error, but new updates of drivers did not fix the problem still could be the problem?  It will not Norton scan (although my anti virus has expired four days before what is happening). I uncheck all startup items and confirmed that in Normal Mode with the system configuration. None of this has worked.

    I bought an external hard drive to transfer all my data on that I agree with setting back to factory settings, but it will not recognize the new external drive in safe mode.   -Why is this?

    Any help on these two issues would be much appreciated!  Pulling the last hair on my head!

    Hi ColtsBlue,

    ·         Did you of recent changes on the computer that could have caused this start happening?

    ·         Are you able to scan the machine with something other than Norton?

    I suggest you try the methods below and check if it helps.

    Method 1: If you have the disks for Windows Vista try a startup repair and verification.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/Startup-Repair

    Method 2: This can happen if the video card drivers do not work or is corrupted so uninstalling and reinstalling might solve the problem several times so try uninstall the drivers from Device Manager. Follow the steps below:

    1. Click Start, in the search box type Device Manager and press to enter.

    2. Device Manager window opens, expand sound, video and game controllers.

    3. double click and go to the tab drivers.

    4. click on the tab to uninstall to uninstall.

    5 restart the system, it will reinstall the drivers again.

    Method 3: You can uninstall Norton and install Microsoft Security Essentials of Microsoft and check if it works very well.

  • Recurrent BSODS even after the repair facility. Hardware failure? Driver conflict? Help, please!

    I was troubleshooting my BSOD for about a week and I need help.

    Here's where I am. I cleaned the chassis and reinstall all components. Then I ran memtest for 8 passes without error. Then I got Majorgeeks through my dieting rigorous anti-malware. And there is no malware on the computer.  I could not find any obvious driver conflict. So I ran SFC/scannow and it found some errors, he couldn't fix. So I finally did a repair installation to see if file system cleaning would eliminate blue screens.

    I always get a BSOD.

    Which leaves me with what? A bad GPU? Unknown driver conflict? Bad motherboard?

    Here comes bluescreenview log for you to look over. If someone could help me please clarify, I'd appreciate it really any help I can get.

    Thank you.
