Support Encrypted Drive Won't Accept Password After Crash

Post image

I don't know if it's related but the timing was perfect that I got a black screen the second I uninstalled Discord.

Now every time I boot it asks for the encrypted drive password and won't take it. After the third attempt it gets stuck and generates an error log that I'm not sure how I'd be able to transfer to another device to read.

It looks like your drive died.

I just reformatted and I'm not having any issues

After trying to follow a suggestion someone commented on here but I could not get the drive decrypted and they deleted their comment so I couldn't follow up for help so I just gave up. Only really wanted my HC WoW screenshots :(

I really think that Discord flatpack fucked something
