Step 2: Select the drive to Scan

1. Please select the drive where you lost files, then click "Scan" to find all BitLocker-encrypted partitions on the device.

2. A pop-up window will appear asking you to enter the BitLocker password or 48-digit BitLocker recovery key. If you don't want to enter the password or BitLocker recovery key here, just click the "Skip" button to skip it.

3. Hasleo Data Recovery will display all detected BitLocker-encrypted partitions on the target device. If you provided the password or BitLocker recovery key in the previous step, the password status will show whether they match the partition.

If you've already entered the password or BitLocker recovery key and the password or recovery key matches, Hasleo Data Recovery will start scanning lost files. Otherwise, a prompt will appear asking for your BitLocker password or 48-digit recovery key. After entering the correct credentials and clicking "OK", the scan will start.

After scanning, the software will display a list of found files. You can preview them by browsing their paths or types. Select the files you wish to recover, then click the "Recover" button to save them to a destination of your choice.

Important Notes:

1. You must enter the correct Bitlocker password or the 48-digit Bitlocker recovery key to successfully recover data from a BitLocker-encrypted drive.
2. If the metadata area of a BitLocker-encrypted drive is severely corrupted, data recovery from that partition may fail—even with the correct password or recovery key.
3. Do not save recovered files to the original partition where the lost data was stored. This prevents the data from being overwritten.
4. You can export or save the scan results for later use or future recovery sessions.
