> Why do i get this faulty patch if i'm not even using Bitlocker ?
You might not be using it now, but you might want to switch it on later.
And more importantly, it prevents an exponential explosion on the amount of different variants of the code. If you allow people to not get this patch, and later another bug is fixed, either you force people to get this patch before getting the next one (leading to N different versions), or you'll have to develop a fix both for people who have and for people who don't have this patch (leading to 2^N different versions).
