    Bitlocker in Windows 10 without TPM

    Hi,

    I have upgraded my OE Windows 10 Home to Windows Pro. I was hoping to use Bitlocker. As my system does not have a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), can I configure my computer to enable Bitlocker without a TPM, not use a USB
    and just use a password?



    Alternatively - when I spoke to Microsoft they suggested that I get a TPM chip fitted to my computer? Is that possible? I have have a HP 251 - 108a Desktop.

    thanks in advance

    Bitlocker in Windows 10 without TPM

    As others here, I have my Win8.1 C: drive encrypted without a TPM and with a password. I am still unsure whether to upgrade to Win10. Your posts:

    • Told how to enable Bitlocker on Windows 10
    • Seemed limited to the BETA version of Windows 10
    QUESTIONS:

    • Can I simply upgrade to Win10 without decrypting my C: drive AND still use the same password on Bitlocker?
    • Can you confirm that Bitlocker WILL NOT revert to the default Bitlocker settings during the upgrade?
    • Will everything work as in your post on the production Win10 upgrade as on the trial versions?
    Having to worry about losing a thumbdrive makes me quite uneasy--especially on the road. In the event of theft, the thumbdrive would likely be with the laptop; thus, obviating the reason for using Bitlocker in the first place.

    The following points have given me concerns about upgrading to Win10:

    From the Win10 Specifications Page:

    •BitLocker To Go requires a USB flash drive (Windows 10 Pro only).

    •BitLocker requires either Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2, TPM 2.0 or a

    USB flash drive (Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise only).

    Did the post "kennethrallen replied on August 1, 2015S, See post history" relate to a removable drive; did Win10 incorrectly interpret the drive as removable because it was encrypted; or was the problem apparently something else?

    Thanks

    DJ
