      The Lock-BitLocker cmdlet prevents access to all encrypted data on a volume that uses BitLocker Drive Encryption. You can use the Unlock-BitLocker cmdlet to restore access.

      It’s true the Answer C is strange, but :

      “Manage-bde: pause – Pauses BitLocker encryption or decryption”

      Is it really what we want ?

      Sure of nothing actually, what a mess in my mind…

    The answer is C.

    manage-bde -pause

    Description:
    Pauses encryption, decryption, or free space wipe.

    All this option does is “pause” encryption, decryption or free space wipe task that is currently running. If none of these three tasks are running, it simply states that: The command is invalid. No conversion is in progress.

    Lock-Bitlocker

    SYNOPSIS
    Prevents access to encrypted data on a BitLocker volume.

    Once you run this command, in order to even view the drive, you must provide one of four possible key protectors to unlock the access again. Obviously, that also means you can’t write data to it either.

    Reading about the tech is not enough. Without actually working with it, these brain dumps might get you to pass the exam from memorizing questions and correct answers but once in the field, you’ll be useless. I like this site because 90% of the answers marked as correct are in fact wrong … which helps me learn what I am not sure of. lol
