HBS 5.8.1.0 Beta 260409 - BitLocker tests and bugs I found
#8
Hi!

Yeah, I didn't expect anything less from Microsoft unfortunately. I still don't understand exactly how or where they store this information.
But it's awesome that you could figure it out!

Works perfectly! Tested it multiple times, couldn't find anything!

Also works perfectly!
I tested with device encryption and standard encryption, both are restored and show up in settings just like before.

Nice! Also tested and it's unlocking both partitions before running the restore process.
No problems, very smooth!

This release is awesome, couldn't find any problems. Really a huge step forward!
Now, where all new devices basically come pre-encrypted, this could make the difference for people to think about switching to HBS or even buying Home/Pro.

Best regards,
Alex
