Can not use BitLocker - why?
I have a big problem to set up BitLocker for my PC and also BitLocker to go either.
I have totally 4 HDD in my system and 2 external + USB Stick.
I already have activated BitLocker without TPM, thanks to the Tutorial here. If open computer and see all my hard drives I can only set up my Drive C where Windows 7 is installed. If I want to Turn on BitLocker it later always says it need a NTFS Format. (My "old" However there is no hidden partion on it, as I installed it on a new drive.
I have already prepared a 400MB partion as you can see in the Drive Management ScreenShot.
Furthermore on all other hard drives, regardless if internal or external I can not set up BitLocker or BitLocker to go.
Anyone has any idea how I am able to solve this problem? Especially for external Hard Disc / USB Sticks it is a important feature for me.
Does it matter if Windows is already activated or not? Up to now I not activate it.
