chip okay on your computer. Basically it will go through all nice and
easy case you do not have that is not a problem, you can basically use
the software side again but you need to do is going to group policies
and transcending on what we need to do for that. We just go in there
and save energy. The edit.MSc again brings a best, and under sloping
and then all you need to do is going to local computer policy and a
certain place. Okay, Windows components locker operating system drives
and then require additional authentication at start-up. Okay, make sure

that's fine. Once that's done you can turn the clock okay basically
ensures everything is okay. They are a couple of options while you can
basically have a USB memory stick. Okay, that is used every time you
start the computer stick needs to be in there because almost literally
say like your little passport okay to Carl Icahn unlock the computer

QUESTION - is it possible, for example, to encrypt a sd card on a windows 7 ultimate edition computer, and then decrypt the sd card (with the recovery key and password) on a DIFFERENT windows os that has bit-locker as well? Such as windows 10 pro or windows 8? Or would i have to decrypt my sd card on the same os that i used to encrypt it? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated my friend!

Thanks for the information.

Well, I have 3TB HDD in my PC for media storage with four partitions and I want to encrypt my entire internal 3TB HDD (all 4 partitions). How can I do this? Do I have to encrypt every single partition separately to achieve entire 3TB HDD encryption or there is another method to do so?

Will it automatically encrypt itself if I add data to encrypted 3TB HDD in future?

[zaryabali]

Hey.. I have a problem.

One quick question, is there a way to alert the user that an action must be taken once an external device is inserted? Like a pop out or automatically run bitlocker to go when an USB is detected, for example.

I don't understand why would you need encryption on a pc/laptop...or i should say *What does it do exactly* ?

[alfredloo]

My Bit Locker To Go is not available for my flash drive.

[Toyie]

Hi, need help! just installed windows 8.1 on my computer. There is no Bitlocker installed in it. Tried also search no luck. How can I use it. Do I have to download it separately?

[dylanchadderton]

I have a question if you have a password to unlock bit locker...why not just use a user account with a password? Is it because people don't feel as secure with just a regular desktop password and it can be hacked...thus this gives an additional layer of security?

[dimcrimsleuth]

Hey, great video! Quick and easy. Could I show portions of this to my class on how to use BitLocker?

[dylanchadderton]
