  1. Tracking a Laptop if stolen


    I have what may seem like a stupid question. I have my laptop protected with bitlocker and wonder what will happen if it is ever stolen. I have it secured with my Microsoft account and "Find my PC" enabled. I also have the Lenovo Smart Lock service on the system, but I am wondering how these services will work if the thief can't log in to the laptop and connect to the internet? I know bit locker would prevent the thief from opening and adding a new boot drive. What happens if they can't log in to the machine and get internet on the machine? Can it still be tracked? Should I remove bitlocker?Th

    :)

    Track a Stolen Laptop

    What brand Dell, HP, ? Dell's got their service tag number if the thief goes to the web site and dl's drivers sometimes they can track it. You would have to talk with them about that. Sorry to hear your laptop got stolen man that just suxs.....

    Tracking a stolen laptop that is powered-off

    Hi When a laptop of any-sort is stolen and powered off changes to track it is 0 the reason being that in most cases when a laptop is stolen it is not certain that the thief will connect your laptop to WiFi but in fact the thief will sell it of and the
    laptop will be formatted or striped for parts. This is unfortunate but you wont be able to track the laptop.
