manage-bde -on Volume [{-RecoveryPassword|-rp} [NumericalPassword] ] [{-RecoveryKey|-rk} PathToExternalKeyDirectory] [{-StartupKey|-sk} PathToExternalKeyDirectory] [{-Certificate|-cert} {-cf PathToCertificateFile| -ct CertificateThumbprint}] [{-TPMAndPIN|-tp}] [{-TPMAndStartupKey|-tsk} PathToExternalKeyDirectory] [{-TPMAndPINAndStartupKey|-tpsk} -tsk PathToExternalKeyDirectory] [{-Password|-pw}] [{-ADAccountOrGroup|-sid} {SID|domain\user|domain\group} [-service]}] [{-UsedSpaceOnly|-used}] [{-EncryptionMethod|-em} {aes128| aes256}] [{-SkipHardwareTest|-s}] [{-Synchronous|-sync}] [{-DiscoveryVolumeType|-dv} {FAT32|[none]|[default]}] [{-ForceEncryptionType|-fet} {Hardware|Software}] [{-RemoveVolumeShadowCopies|-rvsc}] [{-ComputerName|-cn} ComputerName] [{-?|/?}] [{-Help|-h}] Description: Encrypts the volume and turns BitLocker protection on. Use parameters to add key protectors for the encryption key. These protectors unlock access to BitLocker-encrypted data. Automatically adds a TPM protector to the OS volume if your computer has a supported TPM. For the OS volume, encryption begins on the next restart, after a hardware test. Parameter List: Volume Required. A drive letter followed by a colon, a volume GUID path or a mounted volume. Example: "C:", \\?\Volume{26a21bda-a627-11d7-9931-806e6f6e6963}\ or "C:\MountVolume" -RecoveryPassword or -rp Adds a Numerical Password protector. Required to begin encryption if one has not already been added. Leave the argument blank to generate a random numerical password (recommended). These passwords have special format requirements. Provide any argument such as "?" to read the requirements. -RecoveryKey or -rk Adds an External Key protector for recovery. Optional. Provide the absolute directory path where the file containing the randomly-generated external key will be saved. Example: "E:" -StartupKey or -sk Adds an External Key protector for startup. Required if the computer does not have a supported TPM and one has not already been added. To use a startup key, the saved external key file must be located on the root directory of a USB flash drive. Since both the -RecoveryKey and -StartupKey parameters produce External Key protectors, the saved files can be used interchangeably. -Certificate or -cert Adds a public key protector for the data volume. The user's certificate store is queried for a valid BitLocker certificate. If exactly one certificate is found, the certificate is used as the BitLocker encryption certificate. If two or more certificates are found the operation will fail and the thumbprint of a valid BitLocker certificate should be specified. Optional. Provide the location of a valid certificate file or provide the certificate thumbprint of a valid BitLocker certificate that will be present locally in the certificate store. -TPMAndPIN or -tp Adds a TPM And PIN protector for the OS volume. Optional. You will be prompted for a 4-20 digit numeric PIN that must be typed each time the computer starts. Since TPM-only protection overrides this protector, any TPM protector on the computer is removed and replaced. -TPMAndStartupKey or -tsk Adds a TPM And Startup Key protector for the OS volume. Optional. To use a startup key, the saved file must be located on the root directory of a USB flash drive. Since TPM-only protection overrides this protector, any TPM protector on the computer is removed and replaced. -TPMAndPINAndStartupKey or -tpsk Adds a TPM And PIN And Startup Key protector for the OS volume. TPM-only, TPM And PIN, and TPM And Startup Key protectors on the volume are removed.
