Make sure you have the encryption key if your NTFS partition is encrypted with bit locker.
I was able to recover my encryption key from my Microsoft account which raises the question of why bother encrypting my data if Microsoft has my key on file in their cloud? I was glad to be able to recover it but I was not aware that they had it in the first place until a friend told me where to look.
