  • It would be pretty useless encryption software if this were possible :-) Suggest you recover from your backups. You do have backups, don't you? Seems to me that would have been a good first step before upgrading to Win10. In any case, this isn't really a programming question so should probably be migrated to one of the sister sites.

Sorry, but without either the password or recovery key the drive cannot be unlocked.



This is BitLocker doing what it was designed to do.
