Hi Team

I using Windows 10 Home Edition in my HP mini PC. As I know there is no built in feature for drive encryption like windows PRO.

Please suggest any best solution for drive encryption to make drive more secure.

Best Regards

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.


There are many encryption scenarios that one can use with BitLocker.

For step-to-step instructions on using BitLocker, please check the Windows BitLocker Guide: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03438484

(it's for windows 7 OS however you can use the same method for windows 10 PRo)

Click here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/information-protection/bitlocker/bitlocker-device-... Overview of BitLocker Device Encryption in Windows 10.

 

Note: Note that BitLocker isn't available on Windows 10 Home edition.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
