My Windows 10 Pro PC upgrade to Windows 11 Pro License Issues?
Hello all I have a PC with Windows 10 Pro on it that has an up-to-date but old install of Windows 10 Pro. My hardware is compatible with Windows 11 according to the Microsoft tool. I have three problems: I want Windows 11 Pro I need a bigger hard drive I have a new processor I want to install (change from Ryzen 3600 to 5900x, same motherboard) My problem is that I don't want to lose my Windows product key. So my plan is in this order: Put in the new CPU (hope this does not break my Windows license) Install Windows 11 as an upgrade Do all updates Remove old hard drive Put in new hard drive Install Windows 11 fresh Hope existing product key works without me having to buy a new one My questions are: Will my plan work? Will my plan work better if I do it in a different order? Should I do a completely different plan? I am asking the question because I once updated the bios on a motherboard, and it disabled the license for my Windows (which I no longer had a record of). Microsoft said it was because I had a "hardware change," which I simply said you do not know the difference between hardware and software, as a BIOS update is not a hardware change. All the hardware, chips, capacitors, resistors, etc. soldered on to a motherboard were exactly the same! Thanks for readingNot receiving notification from MCT Lounge

OneDrive on Mac: shared folders suddenly not any more visible in finder
I use the Onedrive App on my Macbook Pro M2 Max with the latest Sequoia 15.3.1. I own Microsoft 365 family. In there are three users that share some of their OneDrive folders to some other users of the same family. Now I see that suddenly a shared folder (FOTOS_2024-) is not any more visible in Finder, but it is visible online and sharing is allowed. But it is not in the selection of synchronised folders in the OneDrive properties (see screenprint below) How can I correct this that I have the missing folder again in Finder?

Scenario: We are managing BitLocker through Intune, with recovery keys backed up to Entra ID for both Hybrid and Entra ID-joined devices. Our devices run Windows 10/11 Professional, and we have EMS E3 licenses. Confusion: Most Microsoft documents state that Windows 10/11 Professional is sufficient to enable and manage BitLocker. However, one document mentions that Windows 10/11 Enterprise is required to manage BitLocker using CSP (Configuration Service Provider). We need clarification on whether Windows 10/11 Professional is fully capable of BitLocker management via Intune or if Enterprise is required for CSP-based management. I am providing reference Microsoft articles and screenshots to support this. BitLocker Enablement: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/operating-system-security/data-protection/bitlocker/#windows-edition-and-licensing-requirements BitLocker Management: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/operating-system-security/data-protection/bitlocker/configure?tabs=common#windows-edition-and-licensing-requirements Encrypt Devices with Intune: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/protect/encrypt-devices#view-details-for-recovery-keys "Information for BitLocker is obtained using the BitLocker configuration service provider (CSP). BitLocker CSP is supported on Windows 10 version 1703 and later, Windows 10 Pro version 1809 and later, and Windows 11."
