Solved Windows Security issue after 24H2 update

mickey52 · Oct 19, 2024

I have something I feel better off asking you might be able to tell me what to do. Then this may not be the first time you have heard this. An error has popped up in fact two.
1) it wanted me to sign in I used my email address and password then it's says Opps something we wrong our fault but no fix just check back
2) Data encryptions sign in something tells me not to do it.

My account appears ok I have my photo when I log in but Outlook has a sync issue when I pin a stick note to task bar. I wanted to send this to feed back the next is GRAYED out. I have attached screen shot

It’s a suggestion, not a requirement.

Do you want device encryption?

antspants · Oct 19, 2024

You’re already signed into Windows with your Microsoft account, yes?
The option you show (To my understanding) is asking you to sign in for specific functions if you want them, for example, device encryption.

If you don't want Bitlocker activated, stay away from the settings.
Like I said, it’s an option, not a requirement.

At the bottom of the tutorial I posted above is a list of relatable tutorials by @Brink .

I’d suggest looking at as many as are relevant and you will more than likely learn a lot more.

Until that… NO do not click on that sign in option. Mainly because if you have to ask then you’re better off waiting until you understand more.

But why am I in this situation all I did was upgrade to 24H2. The BitLocker was there before in version 23H2 this was decided for me. It is causing one issue I cannot post anything on Feed back the next button is grayed out, why is this? I attached a sticky note to task bar that on its top menu says sync error We cannot verify your sign in info button to sigh in does not work. These are two things not working, what else is there? I do not know at this point.

Turn off Bitlocker?

mickey52 · Oct 20, 2024

I know if I do there is no return, a one-way street can't enable Bit block again why? My first concern is when I hit sign in all I have to do is provide my account email and password. Finally, why is this step there now when I signed up when I bought my laptop it came with Win11 23H2 was not asked that then.

can't enable Bit block again

Where does it say that?
You can enable it again, it just wont automatically enable like it did originally. You have to re-enable it manually.

When someone posts a tutorial to help you out, it’s probably a good practice to read it.

How can anyone help you if you don’t help yourself?

antspants · Oct 20, 2024

If device encryption is turned off, it will no longer automatically enable itself in the future. You must enable it manually (if wanted) in Settings.

Do you have problems with your Microsoft account?

I’ll mention it one last time.

The image you show is optional. You can ignore it or just log in. Either way, it’s the same login as your Microsoft account.

BUT before you do… What makes you think your device is Bitlocked? Where does it say that? Can you post a screenshot of it?

Because I am not sure you would be seeing that message if your device was Bitlocked, not to my understanding.
I understood that message and log in to be an invitation to turn on device encryption (Bitlocker)
