Hi,
I have one big drive with 100% bitlocker encryption and decided to also truecrypt encrypt it. This was a stupid idea because it took way too long.
Now at 95% it sais it can not encrypt any further and when I check for automatic continuation of encryption it sais that there is nothing to encrypt.
I can not find any ways of stopping encryption, or decrypting...
So probably all my files will be lost now? FBI and CIA can do many things to recover data, but I can not. Last time I checked I could not even get data back that was on a stick and quick formatted. Just some random -not- working files.
So what is good software for recovery?? Easuspro doesn't do anything
Any ideas on how to solve this issue? ::)

Come on guys. 100% bitlock encrypted, now unencrypted.
99.5% truecrypt encrypted without format stuff (only the first 4% or so).
How to recover data from a disk?? Especially this one!?

I just saw a video of this software called 'spin rite'. It sounds like it might work for you. It costs $90, but there seem to be a lot of testimonials to how good it is. https://www.grc.com/intro.htm Another place you could check out are the TrueCrypt forums. I never could get much response there, but I'm kind of impatient. I lost some data through TrueCrypt too. I had a hidden partition and a regular partition and I got rid of the encryption (I think) of the hidden partition (there is only one way to do it, but I forget which is which) by 'permanently decrypting' the disk. It took about 12 hours, and then I was done and I couldn't find anything! It was like the partition disappeared. Anyway, if I do TrueCrypt again, I'll make sure to have a backup plan. It's also important to have a backup disk, a couple of times I had problems starting the computer and had to use the back up disk to fix it.
