Windows version:
Using Windows 10 Edu 21H1. It doesn't seem to be a recent version's problem, I've been trying it for several months and it doesn't work on previous versions.
Problem:
If I encrypt the entire space of the HDD (WD 2TB, EZAZ model) with Bitlocker, it starts very well and also progresses to about 70% but the message 'Access is denied' appears soon and the window that was being encrypted disappears.
At 'This PC' window, the drive is displayed as an icon that looks as if encryption has been completed and even opens well when I enter the password.
However the phrase 'Encryption in progress' appears again automatically, and encryption restarts from 54.4%.
Encryption reaches 70% again, stops again, and click the drive again, it restarts at 54.4%... This situation keeps repeating.
Significants:
When I tried it a year ago with an HDD of the same model, it worked.
Encryption failed on the HDD I bought this time, so I refunded it and bought it again, but it also failed. I don't think it's a problem with HDD.
I have the same problem after performing low format the HDD and clean boot.
What should I do to encrypt normally?
Encryption interruption problems were frequent. Could this have caused problems with the HDD? (The HDD seem to be virtually disconnected and then reconnected due to a software error)
Thank you.
