Should I Enable Bitlocker Windows 10?

But if you’re looking to protect your data in the event your PC is stolen or otherwise messed-with, then BitLocker should be just fine.

Should I turn BitLocker on or off?

We recommend running the BitLocker system check, as it will ensure that BitLocker can read the Recovery Key before encrypting the drive. BitLocker will restart your computer before encrypting, but you can continue to use it while your drive is encrypting.

Is BitLocker a good idea?

BitLocker is actually pretty good. It is nicely integrated into Windows, it does its job well, and it is really simple to operate. As it was designed to “protect the integrity of the operating system,” most who use it implemented it in TPM mode, which requires no user involvement to boot the machine.
