    Windows 10 BitLocker Drive Encryption AND Device Encryption enabled?

    Recently I looked into enabling "BitLocker Drive Encryption" on Windows 10 Pro. After enabling it, I discovered that "Device Encryption" under Settings -> Update and Security -> Device Encryption was already enabled. This is a new Lenovo laptop from 12/2020,
    bought from Lenovo with Windows 10 installed. I never enabled Device Encryption, so I'm guessing it was enabled by default. Does it matter if both "Device Encryption" AND "BitLocker Drive Protection" are BOTH enabled? Should I disable one of them?

    Windows 10 BitLocker Drive Encryption AND Device Encryption enabled?

    Yes, we strongly recommend enabling both.

    The recovery keys may be different for both, which you can identify from the key ID if you are prompted. I suggest taking a printout of this page from the Microsoft Account, in case needed. Bitlocker drives can be opened with a password, but device encryption
    needs a recovery key.
