Try “Disable Block SID”

Where? If I did find it then I wouldn’t be here to begin with.
I stated in my post that there are no options to be found.
This is precisely why this whole topic exists…

Issues enabling BitLocker hardware encryption (Windows Encrypted Hard Drive) on AMD 7840

I am experiencing the same issue as @Damian_Edwards when trying to use a Samsung 990Pro’s OPAL2 hardware encryption. In my case the system is a FW13 13th Gen Intel CPU. Following the guides completely, I got Windows 11 installed where it enabled hardware encrypted bitlocker. Upon next boot I am receiving the same Boot Manager message where the UEFI cannot see the drive to boot from. Doesn’t matter whether I have Secure Boot enable and enforced, optional or disabled, the very same issue occur…

Well like I said I don’t have this menu at all, that’s exactly what I meant.

Ah, understood. That’s a bummer then.

Just caught up with the rest of the thread…damn, quiet since December. " We haven’t tested an 990 Pro or another SSD with hardware encryption"…I wonder how enterprise clients are handling this.

+1 it is disappointing to see this bug lingering for over a year.

While it might be not most used feature, it should be quite high on security/privacy scale, and treated as such.

If anyone is curious, 4.06 BETA bios update does not solve the issue for AMD Ryzen 7040 and Samsung 990 Pro (nothing is mentioned in the changelog regarding this issue, so it’s not a surprise)
