Hi Gurus,

i've got following case:

damaged Medion-Laptop with 64GB eMMC-Flash. I can't repair the machine, so i desoldered the Flash and read the eMMC. After mounting the Image, there are 3 partitions.

- 100MB EFI/BOOT (not encrypted)
- 58GB System/User Data (encrypted)
- 500MB Recovery (not encrypted)

System-Partition is encrypted, we tried alle passphrases, that the owner ever used. Owner didn't activate any password for his user-account in the past. There is no Recovery-Key in Microsoft-Account stored.

So my question is - how does this self-decryption while booting work? Is the recovery-key stored in BIOS or EFI-partition?

On the EFI-partition i found two files with certificates - boot.stl and winsipolicy.p7b
If ther's any chance to find this key in BIOS i'll try to find it with grep. But what should i look for? 32 character alphanumerical string?

Thanks a lot.
Boerge

It may turn out to be easier to repair the laptop. What is the model number? I may be able to locate a service manual for you.

Model number is MD60250 / E2228T / MSN 30022190

Logic board numbers are EM_NT16H-MED_V1.0A / 14D13276 / 10770WCF / FHD Z8300 4+64

but i don't think, that there's any schematic available

I checked elektrotanya.com, but your model isn't listed. :-(

Hi, Please connect/open drive/image and try TRIAL version of UFS Explorer Professional Recovery
Does it detect metadata of bitlocker? If so you may see like this : https://youtu.be/m0nEz9-oBPA?t=197
If not, need to look another solutions...
