safeguard 7 bitlocker how do i enable encryption on non bootable device

WolfgangFischer

Hello everybody,

i have a problem with the Bitlocker encryption for non bootable Device. I have one policie for the Boot volume that works fine and now i want to encrypt the D Partion and E Volume on the same System but Safeguard do not start the encryption on that volumes. I had created a policie for internal Memory and for internal Memory\other... but nothing work.

I had no AD GPO´s configured.

Has someone an idea.

    Hello Wolfgang,

    Do an RSOP for the user on the machine and make sure the D:\ and E:\ partitions are receiving the encryption policy.
    It's worth noting the additional volumes can only be encrypted with BitLocker after the C:\ drive has been encrypted, as the key is stored on that volume, not off the machine like when the the C:\ drive is encrypted.
    Lastly you'll need to make sure they're ready to be encrypted and meet all the criteria. Can you manually enable BitLocker, do they encrypt then?

    Hi Toby and thanks for the Reply.

    In RSOP the policies are fine for the drive and say that the drive should be encrypted. If i activate manually Bitlocker for the drive it works and the windows screen Comes up where i can set the Password, the path for the key... 

    my policie and the RSOP looks like this:

    The Screens come from an lab where the drive is F:

    with best regards
