Hi.

I have a very important issue. I wanted to use my disk with my friend's professional computer. We couldn't save any files on it without encrypting it with BitLocker. We weren't aware of what this software is so we did it... And now I can't run this disk on my Mac computer. Is it possible to decrypt this disk on my friend's computer with Bitlocker so I can get my files back? I know I can download the third party software for my computer to decrypt it but they are so expensive... I wondered if I can just undo this stupid mistake. I would be so grateful for your help... Thank you.

    Hi Maja,

    I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

    If you enabled BitLocker by yourself, try to recover its key:
