It is not a new feature, has been done for at least a decade now. It's intentional however that tampering seals the keys permanently.
At worst you'll have to enter a Bitlocker recovery key...
- GekkePrutser 4y agoYeah but this is pretty bad in itself (really long number) when you're traveling. And needing the recovery key so often will lead to people writing it down and keeping it with the laptop so they're not locked out next time. Which invalidates the whole point of FDE. The last time I had this the key didn't even work, my work rotates it regularly so something must have been out of sync.. Every Linux update seemed to break bitlocker this way so I stopped dualbooting.
- Avamander 4y agoRegular users would probably get their key from their Microsoft account. But yeah, it takes effort to have a working recovery option if your configuration isn't painfully average.
