Excellent - thank you very much - got me out of a hole when trying to reinstall windows on a encrypted hard drive...excellent tut!

It worked perfectly for a Laptop Lenovo T580 with Bitlocker and without Admin User. Thanks a lot. You are amazing!

Worked with Lenovo Laptop IDEAPAD Slim 5i on Thursday, May 30th, 2024. Thank you sooooooo much. Words can't express my gratitude 🙏 Did this then set up an online ticket for them to call me to email me links to set up the USB tool to reinstall windows 11. Then, I did the rest of the installation with USB and just followed the screen instructions

Wow this really saved me! Bitlocker encrypted drive that the Windows installer couldn’t deal with. I had no idea what I was doing but I followed your video step-by-step (with my Windows bootable USB installer ready) and it worked perfectly. I’m totally in business now! Thank you!

Excelent bro, you rock!!!!!! I was thinking that those disk with Bitlocker were trash but with this i can use them. thanks a lot!!!!!!

me too :D

Worked perfectly! Many thanks! Sincerely I found incredible that after skipping the disk, it was still visible in diskpart!

Hey my laptop starting showing " Preparing Bitloker recovery" and then directly jump into to the "choose an option" didn't ask for Boot key..& choose an option not going after so many tries (power on/off, repairing, command, etc) now what i do??

I have been trying to do this for the past 24 hours, and this is the business. Thanks.

cool, exactly what I was looking for!

Worked perfect on a SSD that I took out of an old PC that was locked. I did not want the data, just wanted to regain access to the device so I could reuse it. 😃😃

Thanks do much for this video it helped and I was able to get it fixed finally !!

You just saved my ass. BitLocker was driving me crazy. Though I use this method to format PenDrives, I never expected it to work seemlessly for the harddrive. Thanks a thousand time.

Awesome Job Brother! This method worked for me, now time to install windows!

Quick question. At 4:20 After you exit the command prompt and turn off the PC, is that when you plug in a usb with windows 11 for install when u turn it back on?

Yes, that's it. Then you insert a Windows USB flash drive.

so you cant format and install windows easilty if you dont do this part ?

Worked very good ! 👍🏽 thank you very much

Worked. Very helpful. Thank you..

Thanks man you’re a lifesaver

Outstanding! Thanks!

This method really works for the bit locked laptop but it leads to a completely formatted laptop. After this u need a bootable pendrive or so because it shows "no bootable device found". Thanks

Gracias! El único video que resulto 🙌

Thank you for this sir. Greatly appreciated.

Thanks... You are TOP PERFORMANCE.

Worked like a charm! I worked for several days trying to find a workaround to a lostBitlocker key, this step-by-step guide worked. Make sure to have a bootable drive with a copy of Windows. See previous comments for a link to the video describing the process. Thanks for posting this!

Read the comments, there are hundreds of questions like yours - kzread.info/dash/bejne/in2MwbV6md2uY6Q.html

hi there is no partition anymore

You are really good man. I GET IT. thanks you very much . ❤

After doing this the screen it brought me too says boot device not found

Thank you very much, this video is very helpful, I have tried various ways but the results are nothing, when I try this video my laptop can be used again, thank you very much David Gaming

Trying this till the point of creating the primary partition. I get the "Acces denied" error...help!?

I don't get that blue bitlocker screen when trying to enter my drive. I get a small window without recovery options.

What if there's no disk part list? Only dispart version?

It works ! Thanks for the tip !

THANK U SO MUCH

Thank you very much! All I wanted was to format the drive.

Really wish that comment had been placed in the video! Since trying this I have no Bitlocker and no OS, as advertised. I have tried to reboot from USB after this but am unable to alter the BIOS settings to allow the USB to be in the "Boot Startup List". All the tutorials/advice I am finding is referring to accessing the BIOS from the OS, which no longer exists on mine. Do you have a video to help with this?

thank you so much! you are my savior

My partition has been formatted, what should I do please, My bootable key can't find any more disks...

IT WORKS

Hi, previous day i also have this bitlocker key and i don't know the key, then 1 video said using command prompt and *format c* , after format my laptop can't open , it said *automatic repair couldn't repair your PC* , i do try search and follow the step that have but still can't find way out, should i reinstall window first or continue to solve this automatic repair first ? Need help 😫

If automatic repair does not help, you need to reinstall the OS, but there is a chance that you will lose your information.

this video is the best thank you for that helped me out so much formatting my work laptop to keep it for myself which was bitlocked

This worked. Thank you!!!!!

if I get s cyclical error when trying to wipe the drive does that mean my boot drive is damaged/corrupted? (surface pro 5)

Hi! It worked, but after installing windows and connecting to Wi-Fi it requested me to use an account of a specific institution, probably the previous owner, which doesn't exist anymore. Do you know how to bypass this?
