Error unlocking APFS Volume: The given APFS Volume is not locked (-69589)
I have an external disk that It was encrypted with File Vault, and now is unreadable, it seems it was interrupted during encryption and it is half encrypted. It doesn't mount, doesn't unmount, doesn't eject, and also freezes Disk Util whenever connected. When plugged, it asks for the password one time, if it is correct ask again for a second time, after that message box disappear, but disk does not mount. Running 10.13.1 – Any idea? thanks in advance.
