    Re: BitLocker Repair Tool to recover a reader

    BitLocker Repair Tool (Repair-BDE) is a command line tool integrated with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. This tool can be used to access encrypted data on a hard drive rigorously spoiled if the drive was encrypted with BitLocker Drive Encryption. Repair-bde can reconstruct significant parts of the drive and recover recoverable data when a password or a recovery key is used to decrypt the data. The command line tool Repair-BDE is anticipated to be used when the operating system does not start or you can not start the BitLocker recovery console. If a drive has been physically damaged, it may not be recoverable.

    Before doing recovery of a reader by BitLocker Repair Tool, you should check the following things :
    1. Your computer must have a test drive protected by BitLocker.
    2. You should be able to provide administrative credentials.
    3. You must have at least one of the following:

      • Password recovery
      • Location of key file recovery
      • Location of the package file recovery and password recovery mode corresponding
      • Location of the package file location and retrieval of key file corresponding recovery

    4. You must have an empty output volume of a size equal to or greater than that protected by BitLocker Drive (whose content will be completely replaced after the repair operation).

    I would like to add some more points for your knowledge. If the path to the package key is not precised, a search Bde Repair-key package to the player. However, if the hard disk has been spoiled, it is likely that the tool does not find the package, it then prompts you to stipulate the path. It is suggested to include the package of keys in the Key Storage Active Directory to be able to export if obligatory.
