Imagine I set up W11 using these RUFUS settings. I create a local account and turn off automatic BitLocker activation. However, if an update triggers BitLocker, it could cause issues. Since using a local account means the recovery key won't be generated, or if BitLocker activates unexpectedly, it might display the recovery key or prevent BL from starting on its own. Could you help clarify this? Thanks ahead.

It’s unclear whether anyone is certain. Updates usually won’t turn on BL when it’s already disabled, which doesn’t really matter.

Sure, I also believe using just a local account can help reduce that issue.
