not able to decrypt a bitlocker encrypted harddisk
harddisk running on windows vista, windows crash with error message "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:....File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe"
check the disk with no physical bad sector, possible due to some system corrupted, try to decrypt the disk. run
repair-bde F: -NOV -rp ******-******-******-******-******-******-******-******
It goes to decrypt and takes 2 hours and finish with some log messages
-00000039
-00000031
-00000039
-00000031
...
but when checking the disk sectors, it remains exactly the same as original,
no decryption being done.
try
repair-bde F: D:........
after
2 hours, D: is empty.
can
anyone tell me what's wrong
thanks
