Bitlocker
Hi,
I wanted to use bitlocker on a flash drive to save some sensitive files. I've read about it, but there doesn't seem to be any way to
access that drive and get a decrypted copy of one or two files. Seems that the only thing that you can do is turn off bitlocker, get your info and then turn it on
again. Seems like a pretty dumb plan to me. I'm sure that it will take some long period of time just to get a file and relock the drive.
Does anybody know if that's the actual deal?
Thanks,
HJ
