Data recovery is the process of retrieving lost, deleted, or formatted data from storage devices such as hard drives, USB flash drives, SD cards, and more. Whether the lost or deleted data can be successfully recovered depends on various factors, such as drive condition, file systems, partition map, if new data is written to the affected drive, etc. 

Therefore, data recovery and its process can be so complicated that not every single targeted file can be found or even retrieved, especially when it comes to recovering your lost or deleted data from a BitLocker encrypted drive or partition using a third-party data recovery software.

Some potential users worry about the possible failure of data recovery after purchasing the basic or professional edition of iBoysoft Data Recovery for Windows. This post tells how to evaluate if the BitLocker encrypted drive's files are recoverable in the trial version of iBoysoft Data Recovery for Windows.
