Hi sopanpatil you cannot copy or modify the encrypted drive in XP, if you encrypted in windows 7 or vista , you need to decrypt in the same OS then you can use in XP, it is not possible to copy when bit locker is on. decrypt it in Vista or 7 which you used for encryption, while turnoff bit locker it asks for password , you might saved that while encrypting. Bit locker drive hope it helps Nikhil remember this is a public forum please do not post personal identifications such as mail id

Hi Sopanpatil, On Windows XP, we only have BitLocker To Go Reader.BitLocker To Go Reader (bitlockertogo.exe) is a program that works on computers running Windows Vista or Windows XP, allowing you to open and view the content of removable drives that have been protected (or encrypted) with BitLocker Drive Encryption in Windows 7. BitLocker To Go Reader allows people running Windows 7 to share their BitLocker-protected data on removable drives, such as USB flash drives or external hard drives, with anyone running Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP. BitLocker To Go Reader doesnt allow you to encrypt drives using BitLocker or add files to an encrypted drive. It just lets you read files on an encrypted drive plugged in to a computer running Windows Vista or Windows XP.Hope it helps. Thanks.
