One User copied his data from HP Laptop to external HDD then encrypted it with Bit Locker and kept the recovery Key on that the laptop .later the laptop has been formatted and the External HDD not accepted the Bit Locker key
All data on the external HDD is encrypted. Data recovery will only get you encrypted data. Only way is to get the recovery key from the formatted laptop. You may try to recover the recovery key from the formatted laptop using any data recovery software like Recuva. If it doesnt help try professional data recovery software on the laptop. Only solution is to get the recovery key back.
Currently no one can break the encryption on bitlocker.
Take the drive to a data recovery specialist who should be able to use a hardware solution such as (Salvation Data) to remove the password or in the least be able to perform an extensive/intensive forward/reverse scan of your drive to recover the data.
Please try like this,
Install BitLocker in another machine.
Then Copy the recovery key file from that machine. and keep in your computer
Change the name of the file to your computer name.
