BitLocker Decryption Paused at 30.6% – Error 0x803100d6
Hello, I need help with BitLocker on Windows 11.
My BitLocker decryption was initially running but remained at 30.6% for approximately two hours. I manually paused the process using manage-bde -pause C:. When I tried to resume it using manage-bde -resume C:, I received error 0x803100d6.
Current status:
- Conversion Status: Decryption Paused
- Percentage Encrypted: 30.6%
- Protection Status: Off
- Lock Status: Unlocked
- Key Protectors: None Found
I have run CHKDSK, repaired corrupted Windows system files using SFC, restarted Windows, and freed up disk space. However, the BitLocker issue persists.
I want to safely restore Device Encryption without formatting Windows or losing personal files. I do not have a backup or recovery key.
What is the safest way to resolve this error?
