Bitlocker drive recovery and formatted

Hello Dears. I had encrypted my drive by Bitlocker in windows 7. 
few days after my friend did quick format in my encrypted drive.
i remember unlock password & recover password
how can i recover my data??????
someone help me please.

Hello., I
tried all recovery
programs but were unable
to retrieve something.
Because Bitlocker information
is encoded
And as stated before:
Your only possible solution is a commercial or third party disk recovery program or service.
There is nothing in Windows to recover data from a formatted hard drive.
If you comprehend English, then you can comprehend the solution given above and that from Vladimir Bundalo!

  • Difference between Recovery and Formatting?

    What is the difference between Recovery and Formatting?
    Do I need to download the tools and utilities to do the Recovery?

    Hi again
    I have Satellite M70 at home and it is the same notebook as yours. I presume you have a recovery DVD (like me) and you do not need other discs. If you want to install fresh and clean operating start your notebook and press F12 button. When the list of bootable devices is shown on the screen put delivered media into optical disc drive and choose CD/DVD drive as bootable device.
    After doing this just follow the menu on the screen. How you want to install operating system?

  • Auto change drive letter and format

    Hello,
    After much searching I decided to post a question here. Currently looking to automate the backup process my company has in place.  
    Here is a little bit about the backup process:
    Every day we use Veeam backup to backup several VM servers to a SAN. 
    Then the data is copied to an external eSata disk drive to complete a disk to disk backup via Cobian Backup 11. 
    Each day a new 4TB esata is plugged into a Windows Server 2008 R2 physical server running the backup utilities.
    I'm looking to automate this process.  I'd like to use windows scripting or powershell to automatically change the drive letter and path to a specific drive letter when the drive is connected and then a command to format the drive as well so that it is ready to use.   Anyone have any thoughts? 
    Thanks,

  • Hard drive recovery and replacement

    I have a T43 1875. The hard drive has gone out - can't access operating system, clicking sound, blue button doesn't work. I have obtained the set of boot, rescue and recovery disks and a new hard drive. I can follow the video to physically replace the hard drive. As I understand it, I just follow the instructions (including moving the CD drive to the first position) that came with the disks and follow the prompts and the new drive will be loaded as when it was a new computer. However, I thought I would first use the Rescue and recovery disk on the old drive to see if I could get some files used since my last backup. I can't find detailed instructions of what to expect from the rescue program and how to get the files if possible. Does someone have a link that would help? Thanks.

    Restoring the OS will probably be the least of your problems   This is not going to make you happy, unless you have one of the magic hard drives:

  • Bitlocker drive disappeared and cannot be accessed.

    Hi everyone, I am using an INTEL 80 GB SSD as an external hard disk. However, after I bitlocker the drive, it still works fine. But, few days later, I can't access the drive at all. In file explorer, the disk drive and unlock option didn't will not appear
    at all.
    In Disk Management, it shows like this
    I don't mind if the data is gone. I just want the disk to work again. Can anyone help?

    Yes. The actual disk size is 80GB, but in disk management it only shows 7MB
    How about uninstall its driver in Device Manager, have you tried yet? In addition, please check its status in BIOS if it works normal.

  • Thunderbolt partitioned and formatted hard drive not recognized on USB2/3

    I have a MBA (mid 2012) and recently purchased a Seagate Desktop Thunderbolt Adapter (STAE129), a Seagate Backup Plus 4TB USB 3.0 external drive (STCA4000100), and Apple Thunderbolt cable. The 4TB hard drive can be separated from the USB 3.0 adapter and the drive placed on the Thunderbolt adapter. I created two partitions (3TB and 1 TB) on the 4TB drive while it was mounted on the Thunderbolt adapter and formatted them Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using partition map scheme GPT. Everything works as expected, the drive hits r/w speeds in the 180 MB/s range (using Blackmagic Disk Speed Test), and no issues at all transferring data to the 3TB partition and using the 1TB partition for TimeMachine.
    However, if I disconnect the hard drive from the Thunderbolt adapter and place it on the USB 3.0 adapter and connect it to my MBA, Mountain Lion says "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer and gives me the options to Initialize, Ignore, or Eject. Going into Disk Utility app, the drive shows up without the partitions I created when the same drive was mounted to the Thunderbolt adapter (just shows disk1s1). In fact, the drive label (Disk Description) is different too and the Partition Map Scheme now shows MBR!
    To try work-arounds, I went ahead and repeated the partitioning and formatting steps with the drive attached via USB 3.0 and all works fine until I put the drive back on the Thunderbolt adapter where once again OSX reports that the disk is not readable. I've even tried a single partition with no luck. In short, the drive partitioned and formatted on Thunderbolt is unrecognized under USB and vice versa.
    Shouldn't the disk preparation and data be consistent across these different interfaces? I would think so. My biggest concern is that if I had a failure in the Thunderbolt setup (assuming the drive itself does not fail), then I can't access my data. This is not a very comfortable situation.
    I'm assuming I've overlooked a very basic detail. Appreciate any steer to solve this problem.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Thanks for that, I recently ran into the same problem. I even chatted with Seagate tech support and they didn't know the answer.
    My situation is a bit different from you. I bought the 3 TB Thunderbolt version of the drive directly and then purchased a USB 3 adaptor seperately.  You see, I still own a 3 year old Macbook Pro that doesn't come with a Thunderbolt port. I was looking to upgade to a MacBook Air later.  I thought that I might as well buy the TB version now.
    In anycase, my old MacBook Pro won't see the drive when I use the USB3 adaptor. I get the same exact error message as you did. I can't really test it on Thunderbolt since I don't have one.  I'm going to go install the Thunderbolt drivers now and hopefully, it will recognize the drive afterwards.  I'll let you know what happens.
    BTW, I was thinking of reformatting the drive with NTFS so that I can use the drive on PCs. My mac has the NTFS drivers loaded so it's no problem. I hope this won't screw up the Thunderbolt connection later when I do get the Macbook Air?

  • Data Recovery from Partitioned and formatted Bit Locker Encrypted Drive

    Recently because of some issues in windows 7 installation from windows 8 installed OS. it was giving as the disc is dynamic windows can not be installed on it. so at last after struggling hard no other solution i partitioned and formatted my whole
    drive so all data gone included the drive which was encrypted by bit lockers.
    For recovery i used many software such as ontrack easy recover, get data back, recovery my files professional edition but still i couldnt able to recover my data from that drive. then i found some suggestion Using CMD to decrypt my data first 
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee523219(WS.10).aspx
    where it shows it successfully decrypt my data at that moment my drives were in RAW format excluding on which windows is installed and then in CMD i check Chdsk which also shows no problem found. but now problem is still i coudnt able to recover
    my data then i format the drive D and again tried to recover data using above software after decryption still no result. 
    Now i need assistance how i can recover my encrypted drive as it was partitioned and also formatted but decrypted also as i have its recovery key too. thanks

    Hi ,
    I am afraid that we cannot get the data back if the drive has been formatted even if use the
    BitLocker Repair Tool.
    You’d better contact your local data recovery center to try to get data back.

  • I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I ha

    I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I have a late 2009 iMac.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Need help to partition and format new hard drive for T400

    The HDD failed in my T400. I bought a new 1TB HDD and fitted it. The diagnostic software in the BIOS did a read and controller test (Passed). When I put the Windows XP disk in the CD reader, the setup started - then stalled at the "Windows setup" page. I thought the hard drive had a write problem but apparently it must be partitioned and formatted first, before Widows setup can commence. The thing is that I can't get to the option where Windows formats the drive. In old computers, there was always a partitioning option in the BIOS setup but in my T400, there doesn't appear to be any such option. The computer has 4GB RAM, the actual model is 2767-RV8.
    Does anyone have any suggestions how to get this up and running?
    One other question is - (assuming I can get the thing working) - Is there somewhere I can load the operating system on part of the hard drive where it can act as a fall back in case the operating system gets corrupted? - i.e. something that can't get attacked by malicious software?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.
    Ian

    Hi irivlin,
    If you are trying to clean install XP, then you have to do following setting in BIOS first:
    Press F1 to BIOS, Config -> Serial ATA (SATA) -> change to "Compatibility"
    You can change XP partition only if you are doing clean installation, otherwise you have to use 3rd party to do it.
    For backup part, there are lots of choices in the market. You might consider using XP own backup function. Lenovo got a program called Rescue and Recovery can also do backup as well.

  • HP Pavilion DV8el Entertainment recovery and partitioning drive C

    Someone must have done this before, but I just cannot find anything...
    I had to replace drive C for bad sectors, and now the Recovery Disks I had made three years ago crash with blue screen on partitioning the drive.
    Nothing can be installed via that **bleep** disks (which are new because I have never used them before!)
    I have a clean Ghost image of the whole C drive (before it got corrupted), partition by partition, so I really want to use that to recover my software and configurations. But I do not know how to do that without going throught the ununseable Recovery discs.
    The problem seems to be that Ghost looks for the four original partitions and since it cannot find them it does not know where to install the C data... Can I manually partition C? I have a Linux Mint 13 system on a bootable USB drive, so I can mount and format C, I just need to know HOW (FAT32, NTFS, HIDDEN...) and what size/flags to give partitions...
    I hope someone can help! Thanks a million, Gabriele
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I understand you need to restore your system software after replacing the HDD.
    You mentioned you have a Ghost image.  Are you referring to Norton Ghost?  If so, what version of Ghost was used to make the image?
    If you do have Ghost, then this thread may be useful for you.

    I suspect the process is similar for other versions of Ghost.  Once I know the exact version of Ghost, I may be able to find something more specific for your version of Ghost.

    I shrank C drive. that left me with another drive, which I formatted as drive I.  The recovery drive is D, as it was when I received the computer.   I had some problems with my printer (Epson) through a Dlink DIR655B1, and wanted to return the computer to factory condition.
    When I try to use the recovery through Windows, it says factory reset is disabled??  When I try to shut down, reboot, and use the bios restore, it just comes up with an error message, says to use the dvd that came with the computer, which it didn't?

    You damaged the partition structure when you shrank C, see this guide to properly add a 5th partition after you get it restored using HP recovery media.

  • Bitlocker on Windows 7 - External drive recovery with unlock password

    Hi,
    I am in the unfortunate situation where I have a 3tb external hard drive that I have 2 partitions on. The smaller, 250gb partition was encrypted using bitlocker for work purposes. Now that I have left my previous job, I wanted to decrypt the drive and use
    it normally.
    While trying to decrypt, the laptop ran out of battery, and the process was interrupted. In the morning when I tried to unlock the drive, I keep getting the message "Bitlocker Drive Encryption failed to recover from an abruptly terminated conversion"
    Unfortunately, I do not any of the recovery keys (which were in the old work laptop). However, I have the password that I normally use to unlock the drive.
    My question is: Is there any way I can use the bitlocker recovery tool to salvage my data using the normal unlock password?
    Second, on the off chance that I can, do I need to output the data to an entirely new drive? If I use the option to output to an image file, will that still overwrite all the contents of the output drive?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide. Thank you!

    Hi,
    Have you tried using manage-bde command to decrypt this partition?

  • Bitlocker & ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery on 64 Windows 7 Enterprise

    Hi
    I am attempting to setup ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 on a X300 ThinkPad with 64bit Windows 7 Enetrprise and BitLocker enabled. A installed ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 after turning on BitLocker, as stated in considerations in ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 readme file. When I press the blue ThinkVantage button and then F11, it starts ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4, but shortly after splash screen with life-belt appears the notebook restarts and BitLocker requires keyfile to continue. When I give it the key file it boots nomally. However if I restart and attempt to enter ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 again - the same story repeats, so I'm unable to use ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4. Then I disabled BitLocker encryption on boot drive, and ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 started to work normally, without touching anythnig else.
    So, finally are Bitlocker & ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 compatible on 64 Windows 7 Enterprise? Any one having success with this combination?
    Thanks, George
