My wife asked me to help her with her Windows laptop one day. She was stuck at the bitlocker prompt and of course didn’t remember enabling it or being given a password. I was like, WTF, they’re just randomly turning this on by surprise now? LOL
Luckily she was able to eventually get it unlocked by calling MS support.
