File Share Encryption

Getting below error for PGP encrypted USB HDD (due to which not able to access the HDD) please help

C:\Program Files\PGP Corporation\PGP Desktop>PGPwde.exe --disk-status --disk 1

Disk 1 is instrumented by bootguard.

Encryption removal process interrupted by unknown system error

Current key is valid.

Whole disk encrypted Total sectors: 976768065 lowwatermark: 1848382 highwatermark: 976768065

Request sent to Disk status was successful

It sounds like you are attempting to decrypt the disk?

The WDE Recovery CD may help.

You may also need to run a checkdisk /f /r then re-attempt the decryption process with:

pgpwde --stop --disk 1 --passphrase "password"

Then

pgpwde --resume --disk 1 --passphrase "password"

That should force it to stop and then resume the decryption process again.

above steps worked and able to decrypt the HDD now
