- Jalad 4y ago"by default" is a bit of a stretch because from the link it says "BitLocker encryption is available on supported devices running Windows 10 or 11 Pro, Enterprise, or Education." So it's only on by default if you shelled dough out for one of those
- giaour 4y agoDevice encryption on Windows Home has a different brand name ("Windows Device Encryption") and works a bit differently, but AFAICT it's also on by default if you log in with a Microsoft or AAD account. Can't find any specific documentation on that, though.
- artificialLimbs 4y agoIt’s also randomly on via errant windows updates, apparently.
- mikewarot 4y agoI had it decrypt my drive then turned it off. Linux couldn't see my stuff when I dual booted.
