@hkrn Wait, what?

"You can retrieve the BitLocker recovery key by logging into the BitLocker recovery screen portal with your Microsoft account"

So you're telling me, the bitlocker recovery key is uploaded to Microsoft without consent or knowledge?! (I don't use Windows, so I cannot check this.)

That'd be a huge risk - both for companies and individuals: compromised cryptographic keys.

#Help #MaydayBonjour à tous, j'ai encore besoin d'aide, j'ai commencé à regarder par moi-même. Mais là c'est plus gros et je préfère prendre des avis plus experts sur #Windows et #BitLocker (ne me jeté pas la pierre, je passe à Linux avant octobre c'est promis). J'ai fait une erreur qui a été d'installé un nouvel antivirus sans désinstallé l'ancien. Résultat hier soir je suis tombé sur un #BlueScreenofDeath avec #BitLocker qui me demande un clé de récupération d'un compte que je n'ai pas…

I got this new Lenovo gamer laptop on a Black Friday special and I just set up a dual-boot with #Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS (the boring but safe choice).

I used a #PowerShell command to disable #BitLocker before the Ubuntu installer would let me set up dual-boot, but after that it didn't ask any partitioning-type questions (I'd shrunk the NTFS partition ahead of time from Windows 11) and now Grub and everything works as expected (thank God).

I used Rufus to make a bootable USB stick, as suggested.

Just nuked one of my windows laptops and installed Kubuntu with fulldiskencryption. We are in for hard times and bitlocker is known to be backdoored for the 3-letter agencies. Of course, Canonical is likely also to "have a relationship" but the LEO documentation readily available online seems focused on Windows. FreeBSD is likely more secure, and it would be worthwhile researching which Linux kernels and distros are more likely to withstand a MAGA 2.0 DOJ probe. #kubuntu #linux #ubuntu #canonical #bitlocker #microsoft #backdoors #encryption #fulldiskencryption #OS #windows

TIL: If you want to `cryptsetup open` a BitLocker encrypted drive using the recovery key (8 blocks of 6 digits each), make sure to enter it _with_ the dashes between each block of digits, else it won't be recognized.

"Microsoft Disables BitLocker Security Fix"
WoW what a mess🙄
This again just shows how crazy incompetent #Microsoft really is.
My only advice is STOP using Lame to no end #BitLocker!!! Use #VeraCrypt! www.veracrypt.fr it runs on Mac, Windows & Linux.
The truth is BitLocker has failed as an encryption option so don't use it.

If you need to use #Windows, make sure you do have a copy of your #Bitlocker Recovery Key because an update might brick your computer if you don't have access to it:

What does it take that people, organizations and corporations are finally considering switching from #Microsoft to #Linux on their desktop computers? 🤷
