I don't know if this question has been asked already, but here it is:
Since I've encrypted my system disk on my tablet with veracrypt, bitlocker is asking it's recovery key each time on boot because (what the error message says in eventviewer) it can't contact the TPM device anymore. I previously had encrypted my disk with bitlocker. Is there a way to relink bitlocker and the TPM device (still according to the error message) or is it just the bitlocker way to say that another encrypting software have changed the data?
I need to say maybe that I'm not stuck, I have the recovery key recorded somewhere else and so I jsut need to type it in each time. It's just that it is not supposed to ask that at each boot.
In the perfect scenario I would like that veracrypt is still used and so asking me at boot the password and then bitlocker would be still in use but not asking me for the recovery key. I don't see or understand why bitlocker can't verify the TPM device anymore just because veracrypt did encrypt the disk afterwards?
yes I'm under windows 10 Pro and there is no problem to use both togetehr. Bitlocker was encrypting the disk using the SSD encryption algorithm with the help of the TPM device and as planned, bitlocker wasn't asking for the recovery key because it was capable to use the TPM device for that at boot. Veracrypt have then be used to encrypt the disk in a software manner, it's very efficient using the AES algorithm, no problem of slowing down here. But then bitlocker was suddenly asking the recovery key after the veracrypt screen asking for the master password.
