However, this high degree of validation caused BitLocker to go into recovery mode for benign setting changes, for example, when applying a language pack, BitLocker would enter recovery mode. -In Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and subsequent versions, BitLocker narrows the set of BCD settings validated to reduce the chance of benign changes causing a BCD validation problem. If you believe that there is a risk in excluding a particular BCD setting from the validation profile, include that BCD setting in the BCD validation coverage to suit your validation preferences. +In Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and later operating systems, BitLocker narrows the set of BCD settings validated to reduce the chance of benign changes causing a BCD validation problem. If you believe that there is a risk in excluding a particular BCD setting from the validation profile, include that BCD setting in the BCD validation coverage to suit your validation preferences. If a default BCD setting is found to persistently trigger a recovery for benign changes, exclude that BCD setting from the validation coverage. ### When secure boot is enabled
