Hello, I have a standalone computer installed with Windows 7 Enterprise, now it was encrypted by Bitlocker, could you please tell me how to backup the bitlocker key package? so I can use recover tools with key package to recover the data in case the harddisk was severely damaged. Thanks! Regards, Bruce Li

Start a cmd.exe with administrative priviliges (i.e. right click cmd.exe in the start menu and choose Run as Aaministrator) and then run the command "manage-bde -protectors -get c:"Blogging about Windows for IT pros at www.theexperienceblog.com

Hello, The command "manage-bde -protectors -get c:" will show the recovery password only, can not save the Bitlocker key package. But I want to use Administrator right to save the key package by running a script on the functioning encrypted drive, how can I get the script or save the key package without Active Directory Domain Services? Regards, Bruce Li
