    Device encryption with Windows 10 Home


    I recently read a question about this from someone who has the same Dell Inspiron 15 as me, and it seems their Windows 10 Home DID have the encryption option - mine doesn't, not does it have BitLocker. How can I encrypt my laptop?

    :)

    Encryption advice for Windows 10 Home

    Hi all. I'd like to add encryption to my laptop that has Windows 10 Home v1709. In doing some research, I found that this version doesn't allow for Microsoft's Device Encryption or BitLocker. Any suggestions? Much thanks.
