I think we need the EU involved in this.

I don't have 11 and plan on keeping it that way... F microsoft!!! I like my PC the way it is. I have 8 tb on my offline PC I store my data on there....

Number 1 Solution: Don't use Windows 11.

thanks for fixing a problem no one asked you to fix... as a computer fixed this is going to loose a lot of people their data

Lol this is why I switched to Linux a month ago, had way too many problems, constant updates, frequent blue screen, frequent bit locker crap, and so much adware and stupid Microsoft Edge. Still learning but I am glad I made the switch, no more of this crap

Well just check your Uefi and make sure CSM Support is not disabled,let me explain when CSM is active your computer thinks that it doesnt have Swcure boot when in whole actuality it does because originaly secure boot legacy feature and one of the requrments for the new bitlocker to activate is enabled secure boot but computer does not register securebootas active witch doesnt seat erll eith the ne encryption.Btw i have qustion of my own does reset this pc resets regestry to default if we use Keep my files option?Because if the answer is no,then there is a second loophole in this? Set the PreventDeviceEncryption dword in regestry set to 1 and when use system reset use KeepMy files option. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJzckGmhiq-YmLs

I was worried for a second there, but then I remembered I have stripped that part out using WinUtil from CTT

Oh shit, what happens when an item was in exposition in a store and store was forced to use stores or employees personal Microsoft accounts in order to install the store's demo mode like IPOs. Is it saved in the first Microsoft account or does it save in any Microsoft account that is an admin on the device? Because win 11 on installation demands login or register to Microsoft account, some devices don't respect cmd /oobe/bypassrno Command.

Highly unlikely. The recovery key will be saved to their Microsoft account. As long as you're online you'll be able to login.

This is all to render dual boot users running also linux in the same machine an even further nightmare, doesn't it?

I'd love to see counties making owning a gun compulsory. Else you pay more taxes. So you pay for the police protection.

Premature celebration. SONY removed to option to buy Helldivers 2 in 180 regions.

No problem for me, I set the group policy Editor to only accept updates for Windows 10 21H2

I have to laugh at this. Not only is BitLocker completely going to ruin the user experience for many users, but the fact NTFS itself has so many data vulnerabilities and chances for data loss (looking at you Writeback Caching) makes this even worse than ever. Imagine you have the password for BitLocker, but then the tool gets corrupted in the OS due to a power loss... Oopsie! This is why we've begged Microsoft for several years now to transition Windows to the copy on write enabled ReFS and retire NTFS entirely.

Makes me glad I declined the "upgrade"

i think windows 10 gona be my last gonna learn how to do linux in my free time

My bet: this is somehow related to the kb5034441 update that they recently announced they aren't fixing.

I found it funny that Steam still works after the end of support, maybe because I installed the supemium browser.

Next they're going to say you're not allowed to use Windows unless you have a Microsoft account. I don't have one, I don't want one. I suppose Georges Battaille was right about the wasting of excess power.

I'm one of the less tech savvy people out there but to use your gmail as some of these did is just so excessively dumb.

This is a colossal lawsuit waiting to happen

Full disk encryption matters for everyone regardless of the typical usage of the endpoint. Please learn more about real cyber security before continuing to be so dismissive. Thank you.

Lennox is starting to look better and better. My daughter encrypted her sd card in her phone once. The phone got broken. Put the sd card in a new phone. Couldn't access the only baby photos she had of her kid. Lost them all. My motherboard died on my computer. I pulled the HD out and put it in my new computer and got all 40 gb of my ripped music and the family photos back. Nothing on my computer is worth anything to anybody but me. I don't want it encrypted.

even worse, some laptop manufacturers push out bios updates through windows updates, causing bitlocker to ask for a key. i had this happen to me because dell pushes bios updates through windows update and it automatically installed. immediately disabled bitlocker when it happened once

Crime doesn't pay unless you're elected to congress. Got it.

No, No, No, I tell You three times!!!!!

I am so glad I switched my main OS to Linux more than 10 years ago. I am in control of the OS and there is no bullshit like that whatsoever.

Whats this? You spoke critically of microsoft? Sorry, your windows licence is revoked, its in page 3757 of the EULA and page 4592 says you cant sue us. Good luck getting your PC back.

Sheer idiocy!

This is even better than just "art theft prevention", it's next gen trolling LOL Keep it up at all costs 👍👍

I mean it makes sense on Enterprise/pro installations but for home users it should not be default. It just makes it harder for those of us who have to recover data for our Boomer relatives.

If it's already installed, you can fix it even easier. One command decrypts the disk and turns off bitlocker. The after-the-fact command is as follows: manage-bde -off C:

8:55 The problem is, people who doesn't even know about bitlocker is less likely to have a backup.

Another MSFT fail. I use Windows 11 on a Macbook using Parallels, and my Macbook is already encrypted with FileVault. That includes the Virtual Machine PVM files. Hence, I don't need to use Bitlocker to encrypt what's already encrypted. By the way, don't assume boomers are ignorant about computers; I've been using computers since the 1970s starting with the HP 3000. Best to say non-tech types and i can tell you that covers all age ranges. I can't tell you how many people far younger than me are tech-illiterate beyond using Facetime, Snapchat, and TikTok.

Even worse is this being forced on a desktop computer that sits in your house. Yeah, I can admit it; if you break into my house, you can enter my desktop without a password. Then again, if you break into my house, I have bigger issues than data loss!

BitLocker was already enabled on my laptop by default, even after I set PreventDeviceEncryption to 1 in regedit. Looks like it's time for my parents and I to switch to Linux.

As an ARA for over 5 years this is my nightmare.

This just happened on my mom's laptop that started bootlooping during Windows update. I imaged the drive and sure enough, it was encrypted.

i like doing atomic commits, but that is a different thing

How do I make it translate the text into Spanish?

7:29 bro is glazing 💀💀💀 bro is doing tricks on it

Okay but where are the videos with the chickens

That’s why I’m staying on windows 10 until I get a new computer, I’m not dealing with any of this

d

Why is this necessary if someone had access TO TAKE OUT THE SSD sadly my friend you are already royally screwed.

I have Bitlocker enabled on my Win11 laptop since I bought it. I am using it right now to watch this video. No data loss so far.

Just assume you have no privacy, then anything you do not wan't shared don't put online in any means.

This is why I refuse to update to 11.

I've only used BitLocker for personal and backups. It should NOT be anebled by default on anyone. They need to know what it is before using it.

This is why I'm still on v10.
