Winlocker question never answered. I have tried several avenues for years and still have never been able to access my Winlocker account. 
I have removed the Hard drive from my Acer and it is in an external case. I access all files from that Acer computer but can not get into the Winlocker program.
I remember the Password. I tried downloading a free trial of Winlocker but that was not successful.

    I tried the free trial link a long time ago and could not get it to work. How would showing you the link help?

    Who knows? Might be helpful. Might not be helpful? Can't 100% guarantee anything one way or the other.

    Do you mean BitLocker? The encryption used in BitLocker is very dependent on things not changing in the system, such as machine name and drive letters. That is part of the security... You have to have everything back to the state where it was working, then decrypt all data, then moving things around before re-encrypting.
