Restores Bitlocker encryption for the specified volume.SYNTAX
Resume-BitLocker [-MountPoint]
[-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ ] DESCRIPTION
The Resume-BitLocker cmdlet restores encryption on a volume that uses BitLocker Drive Encryption. You can use the
Suspend-BitLocker cmdlet to allow users to access encrypted data temporarily. Data written to the volume continues
to be encrypted, but the key to unlock the operating system volume is in the open. You can specify a volume by drive letter, or you can specify a BitLocker volume object. If you specify a BitLocker volume that is not suspended, this cmdlet has no effect on that volume. For an overview of BitLocker, see BitLocker Drive Encryption Overview(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732774.aspx) on TechNet.
