it seems when I try to encrypt my hard drive on Windows 8.1, I get this error:

When I check the Group Policy settings on the server, that's what we have, although, it says it's only compatible with Windows 7. Is there a way to make it work with Windows 8.1?

  • In addition to the answer below, I'd advise looking into whether or not you can activate TPM on your hardware. I'd be shocked if you have hardware that can run Windows 8.1, but doesn't have a TPM. I just finished a Bitlocker rollout for my corporate overlords, and even our 8 year old laptops we still have kicking around had a compatible TPM module.

  • I got a clevo P170EM. In page 59 of the manual there is some taking about TPM. Although nothing in the bios. manualslib.com/manual/674857/Clevo-P170em.html?page=59

Run Group Policy on a 2012 R2 that should fix the problem.

Says "At least Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7"

So should work on any higher.

  • We don't have the budget to upgrade to a 2012 license...
