    After updating Windows 11 Enterprise, the BitLocker was in status BitLocker suspended


    Hello, I wanted to ask is there a workaround the problem when I update some of my laptops with the latest Windows updates, which have BitLocker enabled, on both drives, after the update, the BitLocker status was suspended. And after the restart, it didn't ask for a BitLocker password. Then after checking the BitLocker status in Control Panel and clicking Resume protection, it goes back to normal as it was before. Can we have control over this? Do we need to create a new registry key or is there something in the GPO that we can change for preventing this?Thank you in advance.

    :)
     

  2. Bitlocker status when suspended?

    Hello,

    IMO, the BitLocker won't suspend itself unless you command Windows to do so.

    If it is showing ON status atm, I believe the data on stolen system is still encrypted and safe.

    I hope you've reported this to local police so that they may track your laptop and help you to get it back asap.

    Regards.

  3. BitLocker status says suspended?

    So, I was checking the status of my devices and it said that BitLocker was suspended on my laptop PC... which doesn't make sense because it's not suspended?

    Bitlocker status when suspended?

    This might sound a bit silly, but bear with me.

    I have bitlocker installed on my laptop, which was stolen yesterday.

    There was an issue the other month where for some reason bitlocker suspended itself and I had to manually restart it.

    If I go to my devices on the Microsoft account site, "BitLocker data protection" lists shows "bitlocker: on" - I just want to confirm that really means on, if it was suspended would it then show as suspended?

    Just want to try and put my mind at rest, thanks!
