    Windows 11 home device encryption

    I have windows 11 home version on my PC. Under Device encryption it says- Elevation required to view. What does that mean? Will I have to upgrade to Window 11 Pro to get device encryption?

    There is no device encryption setting.

    Click on the Device encryption and there should be an option saying "Device Encryption" turn that on and it will enable BitLocker which is what you are looking for. This what I do and I have a Windows 11 Home edition.
