Bitlocker D drive and Recovery after Restart
To resolve the issues with BitLocker encryption and recovery prompts, ensure the policy settings are correctly configured. Specifically, review settings related to drive encryption method, https://checkbillnow.com/pesco-online-bill/ options, and storage of recovery information to AD DS. Adjust settings as needed to enable encryption for both C and D drives and https://checkbillnow.com/ the recovery process to minimize disruptions for users during restarts. Testing the policy on a few devices can help validate its effectiveness.
- Cant figure out if something in the settings was in correct as I have compared the settings for system drive and fixed data drive as mentioned in the post above. C drive is encrypted just fine.
What I mostly notice is this error in event viewer,
Error: Group Policy prevents you from backing up your recovery password to Active Directory for this drive type. For more info. contact your system administrator.Regarding D drive encryption, It did not work until I created a GPO for Fixed Data drives as mentioned in the below article.

Double-click on "Do not forcefully unload the user registry at user logoff" and change the setting from “Not Configured” to “Enabled”
