Similar for "automatically enabling Bitlocker and uploading the keys to microsoft server".
If it works without any issues, great.
But if you ever run into one of the 50 messed up situations, good luck.

- mrguyorama 16d agoNo, microsoft uploading disk encryption keys to your account is the exact opposite situation. It's microsoft purposely reducing security to ensure there is a recovery path, because average people don't need or want the security tradeoffs where "You permanently lose access and it mathematically cannot ever be recovered" is a failure mode. If it was possible for a key to your house to have that failure mode, nobody would ever lock their doors
