The purpose of bitlocker is to protect against offline extraction of sensitive user data on a stolen PC, because the data itself tends to be more valuable than the PC. So if I was an attacker, here's the process I'd use to get that data:

1. Keep the PC off until a major build sees general release (at the current rate, that's about once every 6 months.)2. Once Microsoft announces a new build, connect the PC to the internet and it will automatically begin updating.3. When the PC reboots into winpe to apply the new build, press shift+f10.4. Run programs to lift the data off of the PC.

This isn't the only long-standing vulnerability with bitlocker, by the way.

This is done in the following way:

  1. Tap on the Windows-key, type regedit.exe and hit the Enter-key.
  2. Navigate to the following Registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\WindowsSelfHost\\UI\\Visibility
  3. Right-click Visibility, and select New > Dword (32-bit) Value.
  4. Name it HideInsiderPage.
  5. Double-click on the new preference and set its value to 1.

You can undo the change at any time by deleting the key, or by setting it to 0.

 

This works with Windows 10.
