Is M3 Data recovery an legit tool or is some kind of scam/malware? There is a trial version that will scan the files on the drive but to actually retrieve them I will have to pay $200 for a license. I should try to recreate the partition manually using the the Windows Disk Manager?Īlso, I came across this article while doing some reach:īitLocker drive not recognized, detected, showing up, how to recover lost data? I already tried the 'Power Cycle' method to try to revive the drive, but I'm afraid the problem could be that the MBR has been corrupted. Since I have the recovery keys for the encrypted disk my problem is to get Windows to detect the drive and decrypt it to recover the files. However, the OS is not able to recognize the partition table of the drive, the disk manager can see there is a drive plugged in but can't read the drive capacity as seen below. Two days ago the drive stopped working, so I took it out of the laptop and plugged it into an enclosure connected to another Laptop with Windows Professional and Bitlocker enabled. I have a M.2 SSD encrypted with Bitlocker that was the boot drive for a Lenovo laptop ( the entire disk is encrypted ) running Windows 10.
