  1. BitLocker: Automatic installed and need key but I never installed it (Windows 10 Home)


    Hi All,

    My hard drive 1tb in my newly bought Dell G5 5590 (15.6-inch/Intel Core i7-8750H Processor/ 8GB DDR4/ 256GB M.2 SSD + 1TB 2.5" SATA / NVIDIA GTX 1050Ti/WIN 10 HOME SL) suddenly asking for 48bit digital key. After more than a week of use after purchase it suddenly Bitlocker. I did not do any set up or installed bitlocker because my Windows doesn't have feature of Bitlocker i use only Windows 10 Home version. Unfortunately I put already some of my very important files from work and photo inside that hard drive.

    I use only local account not Microsoft Account, i did do any bitlocker set up where i see some forum it should be export the Bitlocker Recovery key.

    I tried to call Dell service they told me to ask the Microsoft because those are feature of Microsoft but the Microsoft told me it should be the Dell responsible for the device. Both doesn't give me any help.

    Does Microsoft community has any recommendations? Did this issue happen in the past? Who could have set up BitLocker encryption on my laptop without providing me with a password?

    My files is much important than my device im willing open any service fee for some one can help in my problem.



    Thank you

    :)

  2. Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Two quick ways to use your Windows 7 key during the install:

    1. When asked for the serial #, put in that Windows 7 serial # and continue on. It should activate as soon as it hits an internet connection.

    2. When asked for the serial #, at bottom of window click on the I don't have a serial # text (or whatever it says). It will then ask what version you want to install, ie. Home or Pro. Be sure to install the right version that matches your Windows 7 key. Then once you get into windows you can activate by putting in the key. Some people prefer this method, not sure why honestly. Easier to do #1, since the installer will see your key and know which flavor of Windows 10 you are trying to install.
