Resume-BitLocker

Restores Bitlocker encryption for the specified volume.

Syntax

Resume-BitLocker
      [-MountPoint] <String[]>
      [-WhatIf]
      [-Confirm]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Resume-BitLocker cmdlet restores encryption on a volume that uses BitLocker Drive Encryption. You can use the Suspend-BitLocker cmdlet to allow users to access encrypted data temporarily. Data written to the volume continues to be encrypted, but the key to unlock the operating system volume is in the open.

You can specify a volume by drive letter, or you can specify a BitLocker volume object. If you specify a BitLocker volume that is not suspended, this cmdlet has no effect on that volume.

For an overview of BitLocker, see BitLocker Drive Encryption Overview on TechNet.

Examples

Example 1: Resume protection for a volume

PS C:\> Resume-BitLocker -MountPoint "C:"

This command resumes BitLocker protection for the C: drive.

Example 2: Resume protection for all volumes on a computer

PS C:\>Get-BitLockerVolume | Resume-BitLocker

This command gets all the BitLocker volumes for the current computer by using the Get-BitLockerVolume cmdlet and passes them to Resume-BitLocker by using the pipeline operator. The command restores protection for all BitLocker volumes.
