I am running Windows 10 with DiskCryptor whole disk encryption on the system drive. The latest Windows 10 update fails to install. When I restart the system to install the update, I get the following sequence of events:
- I enter my DiskCryptor password which unlocks the disk
- Windows Update asks for the keyboard layout
- Windows Update then fails shortly after
If I push through the process far enough I get to a message that indicates it cannot continue because a file (or files) is locked.
My colleague also uses DiskCryptor on his system drive and has had an identical experience.
So:
- Is this a known issue with whole disk encryption generally?
- Is this an issue with DiskCryptor specifically?
- If so, is it a bug MS will be fixing or will it require a workaround?
