Asked By TechieTraveler99 On

I'm trying to set up a dual boot with Windows 11 and Ubuntu, but when I choose the option to install Ubuntu alongside Windows, it keeps prompting me to disable BitLocker. I've gone ahead and disabled it, but I still get the message that it's enabled. What's going on?

How are you going about disabling BitLocker? Just checking—sometimes it's easy to miss a step, so ensure you're following the right process.

You only really need to disable BitLocker if you're looking to resize the Windows partition or access its files through Linux. Make sure that you do that in the Windows Disk Management tool before proceeding with the Ubuntu installation.

By the way, is BitLocker totally off, or could it be suspended? Sometimes the system indicates it's off when it might just be on pause, which could lead to confusion.
