You should be able to see the exact edition and iteration of Windows 10 there.

Why my Windows 10 doesn’t have BitLocker?

1. Upgrade your Windows OS

  • Choose All Settings
  • Click on Update & Security.
  • Now, Click Activation.
  • Click Go to Microsoft Store.
  • Buy Windows 10 Pro Package at $99.00

With those steps, we can conclude this article. Whether you choose to upgrade Windows 10 to a more advanced option or decide for third-party software, it’s your choice. We suggest the latter option as there are much more advanced tools then the built-in encryption tool that comes with the system. Albeit, BitLocker is not all that bad.
