Group: Forum Members Posts: 2, Visits: 10	hey folks Week ago I've upgraded my PC and got Windows 8 OS with it. I have successfully installed SkyDemon v2.7.0 on it and had fun for a few days. Two days ago I've been asked to encrypt my disks using BitLocker. After getting my disks encrypted SkyDemon no longer starts. After clicking the icon PC shows some action ("hourglass") for 2-3 seconds and nothing happens. I've tried to re-install but with no success. Any ideas on how to get my SkyDemon back? thanks in advance! mfk, Poland
