Thousands of Windows Users Will Lose Their Data
Description for extra context:
"In this video I discuss how Microsoft requiring bitlocker encryption by default in a new build of windows 11 could cause people unfamiliar with bitlocker to lose their data."

My windows laptop keeps trying to install the windows 11 update 24H2, and I tried a few times and had to make space and add a usb drive during the installation, however it fails on restart sticking at 0%. on 3 attempts
As my laptop is on 64gb, that may be the problem, I think once installed it uses 30GB.
The 24H2 update option has now stopped appearing today, I think 23H2 will get support 2 years from 1/11/2024 (24 months), whereas 24H2 will get 36 months support..
My laptop is 5 years old, perhaps I need a laptop with bigger storage say 256gb and 16gb ram, my windows 10 laptop is supported till October 2025.
It seems that the software keeps outpacing the hardware thus making it obsolete, I may consider trying chrome o/s which is free if windows stops working eventually.
Would the advice be to stay with windows 11 23H2 rather than get problems such as bitlocker.?
The windows o/s just keeps getting bigger each time it upgrades needing more free space, perhaps making some computers redundant, as the drive is solid state and can not be increased on my machine. Some laptops have both solid state and a normal hard drive, is that a better option.
