Windows Update during decryption cause drive failure - How to recover?

  • 1.  Windows Update during decryption cause drive failure - How to recover?

    Posted Jul 12, 2011 11:24 AM

    While performing full drive decryption I paused the decryption and had to shut down the machine.  At shutdown Win 7 decided to install 13 updates.  Then the machine would not boot to that drive.  

    So I have a partially decrypted drive that will not allow me access the files.  I have plugged the drive in as a USB device and the files that I need are not decrypted.  What means/methods will work to decrypt the files on this drive?

    Can you decrypt the disk from the PGP installed on the computer you have connected it to?
