If you have a removable TPM you can safely move the TPM to your new motherboard and use the drives just fine with no setup. These codes are used to allow you to use your Bitlocker encrypted drives seamlessly when you boot the PC but there are safeguards.
I have a lot of experience with TPM's since my last motherboard was a WS Z390 Pro which has a removable TPM since it was a workstation board. Is there something Im missing or did Microsoft really not think this through? I could even see this making issues without bitlocker, because why not… Ok and what happens when the motherboard or cpu breaks… they'll be locked out of their stuff as everything is encrypted with keys they cant retrieve?
Then we can assume a lot of people will turn on bitlocker so they feel more secure…
So the keys are stored in the motherboard, or CPU…? With all the fuss about windows 11 im wondering how bad is that really…
