    Hi, I have an old laptop that I’d like to wipe but no longer have any of the reviver keys, passwords or bitlocker passwords, I’ve create a USB from media creation tool etc but am now stuck due to option from boot menu not appearing, I found a similar thread where a gentleman by the name of Dave DaveM121 was helping but I got stuck! Any help would be very much appreciated

    :)

    Need to turn off Bitlocker to install Windows 10

    Hi,

    We suggest doing the following steps again to resolve the issue. To complete the procedure, make sure that you have the following information:

    • You must be able to provide administrative credentials.
    • The drive must be BitLocker-protected.
    To suspend BitLocker Drive Encryption on an operating system drive, please follow the steps below:

    • Click Start, click Control Panel, click
      System and Security, and then click BitLocker Drive Encryption.
    • Click Suspend Protection for the operating system drive.
    • A message is displayed, informing you that your data will not be protected while BitLocker is suspended and asking if you want to suspend BitLocker Drive Encryption.
    • Click Yes to continue and suspend BitLocker on the drive.

    Let us know how it goes.
