    Bitlocker key won’t work


    Turned on dell laptop yesterday to a blue screen asking for a bitlocker recovery key. Accesses my microsoft account which identifies my Dell. Click on the manage bitlocker icon and taken to a page with two bitlocker keys but neither of these appear to be for the Dell despite me arriving at that page by clicking on the icon for my Dell in my microsoft account. Tried both keys anyway and neither work. I never initiaked bitlocker. Who did? Laptop was new. How do i recover the laptop? Thanks to anyone that can help

    :)
