Can't wait for the virus that uses this to replace a windows install with a Linux install that's riced to look like windows. Will the normies even notice?

On windows if you don’t disable bitlocker, then login at least once to your outlook.com account so it can backup the key.

That's not a bad idea, but if you are going to be using Linux then I'd recommend exporting the key and, for example, saving it in your password manager and/or on a USB stick (preferably after encrypting it). That way you can easily decrypt the partition using dislocker. Also, personally, I do not want to my encryption keys to shared with Microsoft, but that's just me ¯\(ツ)/¯
