[PC4Free]

@Magicboyz156 haha copy all the data of the stick and then format it as NTFS or FAT32 :) Copy the data off before you format it as formatting wipes everything

@pinche1994 Yeah it's only for Windows 7 Ultimate, but it works with other versions of Windows as well.

[pinche1994]

@iGarthi NO! THAT'S SO NOT TRUE. IT'S NOT EVEN ON WINDOWS 7! IT'S NOT EVEN SUPPORTED

[pinche1994]

@iWRespawn It's on Windows 7 already, you have to activate it. Just type "Bitlocker" in the Windows Start menu and select "Bitlocker Drive enctryption" and run it.

If I put the password on the stick and I put the stick into like windows xp or a mac will it still ask for the password?

Or will it just allow people straight to my data?
