I am the sole user of a computer in an office. I set-up Bitlocker to encrypt the entire drive that Windows 10 lives on, so that I'm required to enter a Bitlocker password as soon as the computer boots and before Windows is loaded. I would like this to be the only password that I type, and for Windows to load and then automatically login to my user account (which is an administrator account).
There is an option in Windows User Accounts: Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer. I would like to de-select this option, since I need to be physically present to type my Bitlocker password in before Windows loads.
Are there any security implications of doing this? Every time I leave the computer unattended I lock it using Windows Key
