I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and tried to use bitlocker on my data partition (D:) which is only for data and documents. Bitlocker reached 54.6% in few hours and then it stop progressing. I waited more than 24 hours before I started worrying and I was sure the bitlocker encryption has been stuck. There is no other way, I have to forcibly terminate the encryption. I am not able to access this partition now, even if I have the correct password and recovery key. It seems that BitLocker encryption stuck causes the partition to not be fully encrypted, so it is corrupted. What should i do to recover data after Bitlocker encryption stuck?
A stuck BitLocker encryption process can put your data at serious risk—this is not an exaggeration. While this may stem from a Windows bug, the reality is that you're left to solve it on your own. If standard methods fail, there's still hope. We recommend Hasleo Data Recovery, a professional BitLocker data recovery tool designed specifically for situations like this. Widely regarded as one of the most reliable tools on the market, Hasleo Data Recovery can recover the data after Bitlocker encryption stuck. Still unsure? Try it for yourself and see the results.
Download, install, and run Hasleo Data Recovery. On the main interface, you'll see several recovery options. Please select BitLocker Data Recovery mode.
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.
4. Double-click the partition you want to recover data from. 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. If your desired files are not found, click "Deep Scan" to initiate the Deep Scan Recovery process. This process takes additional time but can recover many more lost files.
As a professional BitLocker Data Recovery software, Hasleo Data Recovery can not only recover data from an encryption-stuck BitLocker drive, but also recover data from a decryption-failed BitLocker drive.
