Great tutorial bud!! Very easy. BTW, just a comment/heads up: you hide the filenames, but when you clicked on them, it showed the filenames on the status bar, which was not blurred.
But when i shutdown the pc or restart the data have gone. i have to again mount them for accessing that data. please help. i don't want every time mount or decrypt the bitlocker.
Does this leave any files on the hard drive you're accessing? Like where you put the points for Dislocker or Linux to reference. IF so, where would I find them to delete them?
Hey nice work.but I'm trying this in fedora and I've no idea about recovery passphrase.and if I'm trying to use user password its showing "no bitlocker volume path given.abort ".can you help me please
Hi, my computer crashed but the memory still alive. I don't have the bitlocker key or password because it was activated automatically by the last windows update How can I recover and access to my data ?
Hi. Just wondering if you have any ideas for this error [CRITICAL] Program designed only for BitLocker version 2 and less, the version here is 26591. Abort.
My laptop (dell inspiron 7391) has now BSOD loop... no back up or recovery point. safe mode and "Win Blue Screen repair tools" are not fixing anything and the come up with somthing about: D: ecovery\windowsre\Winre.wim\SYStem32\logfiles\srt\srttrail.txt It happened while i was trying to disable Intel optane feature , which is built in to my intel ssd... i did this so i cant switch it back to PERFORMANCE mode because of a notification i received from the optane GUI tool notifying me of it... laptop was charged & connected to power during the processes so i believe its a bug...Nor intel or Dell could troubleshoot or assist key facts: *I have bit locker is enabled and i only have the recovery key... *once ive connected the corrupt ssd to a different machine i got a prompt to format the drive.... *Windows wont recognize it as bitlocked and the Intel GUI tool wont recognize it as an intel ssd so i cant take any actions, *Ive tried the "repair-bde -force" command line tool and most of the times it would just tell me that the drive im using to output the data to - is in use (but it was formatted and now just connected so wtf?!) after trying to run this command for dozens of times i was able twice to get passed it and this what came up: "Error :the input volume has suffered damages to critical information related to the decryption key. please try the -keypackge to specify a key package. the volume may not be recoverable. from my understanding - keypackge exits only if my machine is part of a domain environment and manged by AS DS. whats next? is any data recoverable ? should i use other methods of recovery like photorec ?
I have my bitlocker drive in raw state. Can i still try this method to recover? I know the password, but dont have recovery key. Could you please help me in this regard. Been trying for the past 1 week. Thanks, in advance.
Hi Mate, you video really helped to access the data but is there anyway to remove the bitlocker encryption using Linux? My surface pro does not boot up and i can not format the hard disk by any means.
Amazing Tutorial. The first time worked like a charm but trying it again on the same machine i got a wrong fs type error when i tried to mount it on 'disk'. Any Help??
I got it. i did not name filesystem extension. so i corrected it this way sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o loop /media/bitlocker/dislocker-file home/ubuntu/disk/ works perfectly.
Hi, how can we use it in a situation that we do not have the bitlocker key with us. My pc is boot failing and when it goes to reset the device, it ask for bitlocker key. This is the office pc and someone who used before would have activated this.. what would be the solution for me? It ask for recovery key to proceed. It is a SSD hard drive and it I can recover data which is in D: drive would be enough
Hi Gayan, sadly due to encryption there's not much chance of getting anything back - The method I showed used the drive / partition recovery key - The other method is the user method - But for this - You need to know the account it was using - Perhaps BitLocker has been switched on through the user of using a Microsoft Account - Could if you have access to a Microsoft Account - The key may be within Microsoft.com - blog.elcomsoft.com/2016/03/breaking-into-microsoft-account-its-no-google-but-getting-close/
The syntax that works for me. sudo dislocker -v -V /dev/yourDisk -p(paste OS recovery code) - - /media/bitlocker (note theres no space between '- -'/media/bitlocker. Only writte spaced it to prevent youtube comment from striking it out.

You're welcome!

Hi. Just wondering if you have any ideas for this error [CRITICAL] Program designed only for BitLocker version 2 and less, the version here is 26591. Abort.
My laptop (dell inspiron 7391) has now BSOD loop...
no back up or recovery point. safe mode and "Win Blue Screen repair tools" are not fixing anything and the come up with somthing about:
D:
ecovery\windowsre\Winre.wim\SYStem32\logfiles\srt\srttrail.txt
It happened while i was trying to disable Intel optane feature , which is built in to my intel ssd... i did this so i cant switch it back to PERFORMANCE mode because of a notification i received from the optane GUI tool notifying me of it...
laptop was charged & connected to power during the processes so i believe its a bug...Nor intel or Dell could troubleshoot or assist
key facts:
*I have bit locker is enabled and i only have the recovery key...
*once ive connected the corrupt ssd to a different machine i got a prompt to format the drive....
*Windows wont recognize it as bitlocked and the Intel GUI tool wont recognize it as an intel ssd so i cant take any actions,
*Ive tried the "repair-bde -force" command line tool and most of the times it would just tell me that the drive im using to output the data to - is in use (but it was formatted and now just connected so wtf?!)
after trying to run this command for dozens of times i was able twice to get passed it and this what came up:
"Error :the input volume has suffered damages to critical information related to the decryption key. please try the -keypackge to specify a key package. the volume may not be recoverable.
from my understanding - keypackge exits only if my machine is part of a domain environment and manged by AS DS.
whats next? is any data recoverable ? should i use other methods of recovery like photorec ?
Thanks man!

No, mate not that I'm sure of, sorry.
Any way to do it with just the Bitlocker PIN/Password but no recovery key?
No unfortunately, not that I'm aware of.

Hi, thank you for the video. I don't have access to my Password ID. Any idea on how to retrieve that information?
No, sorry
Does this still work?
Isn't any one-click solution? Maybe not in ubuntu but in some other forensics-oriented distro like kali or parrot?
Where I could find the recovery-password ?
Its recovery key, not recovery password
Well if I had the damn key I would just input it when it asked for it on the windows device. This tool is useless
The syntax that works for me.
sudo dislocker -v -V /dev/yourDisk -p(paste OS recovery code) - - /media/bitlocker
(note theres no space between '- -'/media/bitlocker. Only writte spaced it to prevent youtube comment from striking it out.
