BitLocker Support...

Post by Zardoz2293 »

XY obviously knows when a drive is BitLocker, and locked v. unlocked based on the drive icons in the toolbar. Would like to see at a minimum when a drive is locked IS CLICKED the BitLocker popup to unlock becomes available to unlock. The current workflow is cumbersome.

I second this request. I end up using Windows Explorer to get the password prompt to unlock it.

It would be nice if XY could trigger this password prompt so there is no need to use Windows Explorer. Thanks!

If you are using a 64bit os, you can use the XYplorer's 64bit context menu to trigger the password prompt.
No need of Windows Explorer. :wink:

I mean we can use the Unlock entry in the 64bit context menu of XYplorer to unlock the disk on a 64bit OS.
Need to right click the driver icon and find the entry. Not automatically pop out when double click.

If I miss understand something, Sorry and just neglect...
