Product: ENVY 32 All-In-One 32-a0014
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

On the Microsoft Windows 10 site it states BitLocker is not available for Windows 10 Home addition.   When looking in my system setting it indeed  is the Home edition but I have BitLocker encryption enabled.  In fact I was able to print out a recovery key.  Do I have BitLocker functioning or not.  If so this conflicts with Microsoft's statement.  I was thinking on upgrading to Windows Pro but if I have BitLocker it's less of a reason to.

I probably jumped to a conclusion to soon.   BitLocker is not available on Windows 10 Home.  It does have Device encryption just not BitLocker encryption.  You still still turn it ON or OFF and you can still get a Recovery Key.
