Both servers have drive C and 3 more drives (these 3 are the ones with BL)

Hi @ENRIQUE VAZQUEZ MORALES

If you have made any recent updates try removing them and see if that sorts the issue. Here is a thread as well that discusses the same issue and you can try out some troubleshooting steps from this and see if that helps you to sort the Issue.

Hi @Limitless Technology

Thanks for the information I will validate and see what results. check at first glance, they are servers that have more than two years with the bitlocker.

We are using hyperconverged system with no way to root the disk arrays.
