Override bitlocker PIN entry during reboot
One of my machines has bitlocker enabed but doesn't have a TPM chip. This translates into an annoying but secure PIN or password entry every time a reboot is required. This is okay when I'm near the computer but sometimes I have to reboot while being remote.
WARNING: this might leave your computer vulnerable. You're doing this under your own risk.
If you're in this situation, take a look at this article: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Restart-Computer-with-707ae728.
Copy the powershell script from there into a file called Restart-ComputerWithBitlocker.ps1. To run, open Powershell as an Administrator and execute:
PS> . .\Restart-ComputerWithBitlocker.ps1; Restart-ComputerWithBitlocker
If you prefer to have a CMD file, create one and put these contents inside:
@echo off
powershell -command "& { . %~dp0\Restart-ComputerWithBitlocker.ps1; Restart-ComputerWithBitlocker }"
Again, you'll have to execute as an Administrator.
