I am using a laptop with BitLocker Encryption turn on. However, my keyboard is damaged and I cant enter certain characters which are used as my password.

I have the BitLocker Recovery Key with me generated in a text file. I have enter the BitLocker Recovery Key to unlock the drive, but BitLocker still prompts me for password.

How do I disable BitLocker password prompt?

  • You can't. It sounds like it is rejecting the recovery key. Which means the password is required. You shouldn't need both to unlock the drive.. Hook up a USB keyboard and verify it will even accept the password

    What is the point of encryption if it can be bypassed?

Use the on-screen keyboard provided by Windows or a external keyboard to input the password

  • The author does not have access to the on-screen keyboard at the boot stage you enter your Bitlocker password at.

  • @Ramhound Thanks for the info, removing the on-screen keyboard then.
