Fusion - Windows 10 Uable to enter BitLocker Password

I was working with BitLocker and Encryption doing some testing on windows 10 VM on Fusion 8.5.3 and after a few reboots I am stuck at the following Screen.

I can't get the vm to take any input from the keyboard and I'm stuck at this window.

Any help or suggestions would be useful and I have tried to search and find some answers, but I haven't been able to find much yet over the past few days.

Curious. Are you running this as a Boot Camp partition, or strictly as a VM?

Hi,

Not sure.. I would expect to be able to use the keyboard after clicking into the VM.

However if that is not working, the next thing that I would try is to pass an external keyboard to the guest directly.

The below doc might help for that:
