Disabled the “configure use of passwords for operating system drives” setting. Enabled the “configure use of passwords for operating system drives” setting and have set up the password complexity setting to be “Do not allow password complexity”. Within the group policy folders, I have set up the password policy for an operating system drive for a minimum length of 8 chars and have executed ALL the following distinct policy settings combinations: These distinct simple and complex password iterations have been aligned with the following group policy selected options in order to make them acceptable to the Bitlocker system: So basically, every conceivable valid password combination has been attempted. I have also attempted very simple password cases like only using lower case chars and numbers etc. I have used 8 or more characters which included upper case chars, lowercase chars, numeric digits and even included non-alphanumeric chars like “$” etc. Unfortunately, I can never get to encrypt the drive because Bitlocker keeps on saying “incorrect password“ regardless of what VALID (and verified matched) password I setup with BitLocker. I have attempted to use BitLocker to encrypt a bootable win 10 pro (latest anniversary edition ver) drive on numerous occasions with a NON TPM group policy setup (“Require additional authentication at startup” setting has been enabled and the “allow BitLocker without a compatible TPM” option has been selected) which uses a USB drive or a password for drive entry after encryption is successful. I am not sure if this is the right place to post bitlocker issues but I was not able to find any forum titled encryption apps or similars so I have placed it here
