One week ago, I bought a MacBook Pro and I want to copy files from a drive with BitLocker onto my MacBook Pro. Unfortunately, I was unable to open this BitLocker encrypted drive on Mac OS. How do I open BitLocker encrypted drive on Mac? Can anyone recommend the best way for me to open BitLocker encrypted drive and copy files to the Mac? Please help me!
