    Hello, thanks for sparing time for my issue .

    I had syskey in my windows 10 operating system and I tried to update but in the final stage it did not go through because of the Syskey.

    Hi again, Sorry I am seeming to misunderstand. I need a bit of clarification, should I disable syskey by that method first and then use bitlocker? Or just use bitlocker instead of messing with syskey? Will using Bitlocker disable the use of syskey altogether?
    Just want to be sure about this procedure. I have never enabled syskey on this system so using bitlocker instead is the way to go? I have windows 10 home 1703 build (15063 632) Is bitlocker usable on home edition?

    Thank you.

    An update on my Windows10 laptop is failing because syskey is enabled. With syskey enabled I have to enter a password during the boot process every time I start/restart my machine. Apparently support for syskey in Windows10 is being dropped with these
    latest updates, and so does this mean that I'm stuck with Windows10 as it is on my machine for ever more? I have been told there is no way of disabling syskey once its running, is that true? If so, should I disable updates?
