Data Encryption

Hello,

I have an ASUS laptop (vivobook_asuslaptop x512ja f512ja) that I am currently running windows 11 on and it is less than a year old. I am trying to turn on data encryption but it doesn't give me the option to turn on data encryption in the settings and I can't find bitlocker anywhere on the laptop either. I checked system info to see what was wrong with encryption and found this error: Device Encryption Support    Reasons for failed automatic device encryption: Hardware Security Test Interface failed and device is not Modern Standby, Un-allowed DMA capable bus/device(s) detected. I made sure that TPM 2.0 was turned on and am unsure of what else to try to fix this issue.

    For Home editions you have to rely on the manufacturer of the device to supply the encryption.

    I have a laptop with W11 Home that I'm able to Bitlocker the main drive.

    The difference for me is I have S3 Standby.

    You should check with Asus support (https://www.asus.com/us/support/) to see if you have any options at all.

    Bonne chance!
