Bitlocker encryption not compatible with this version of windows

Question
-
Hi, I am having a problem with my USB drive that I decided to protect with Bitlocker. The encryption was successful from 0 to 100%. Right after 2 minutes of completion of my encryption, when I tried to open my USB drive it says "BitLocker encryption not compatible with your version of windows" while my windows is updated and I have also updated BIOS.
I've tried other methods mentioned on community, such as disabling it through CMD using
"manage-bde -unlock D: -RecoveryPassword YOUR-BITLOCKER-RECOVERY-KEY-HERE" and
"manage-bde -unlock D: -Password" this command.
but none of them works, when I start typing the password after entering given command, it simply doesn't show up on screen.
I have my recovery key and I also remember the exact password that I entered during setup.
Your help will be appreciated,
Thanks
