Windows 10: bitlocker locked / missing sign in app cannot access shift/restart only gives me boot...

I need to get in to unlock my bitlocker and cannot because my pin app is missing. Holding down the shift and restart only gives me the boot manager and set up utilities. Are there other combination of keys to use. Thanks.

:)

 

Bitlocker

Hello Nandana,

To enable BitLocker on your computer, you follow the steps below:

• Sign in to your Windows account with an administrator access.
• Press the Windows key.
• Type and enter BitLocker.
• Click Turn on BitLocker.
• If the system is asking to sing in to administrator access, please do so.

For additional information about BitLocker, we suggest that you check the frequently ask question on this
link. The link provided applies to Windows 8.1 to higher version.

If you have other concerns, don't hesitate to reach us.

 

Bitlocker frequently locking computers

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately these suggestions don't really fit our needs. We want to use BitLocker and don't want to disable it. The problem we have is that it locks some of our computers from time to time. Ideally we will make use of BitLocker but not have it blocking our computers.

I have tried:

1. Turning off BitLocker
   
2. Installing all Driver and Windows Updates
   
3. Turning BitLocker back on again
   

Maybe this will help. We will wait and see.

 

Cannot Start PC: Missing Boot Configuration Data

Windows version: 10.0.19041.631

I reinstalled windows 10 with the keep data and app option a week ago.
Today, a BSOD happened and it was something like "page fault in nonpaged area". I forgot to record down the specific message.
Now I cannot start my PC at all. I get this 0xc0000098 error on every boot:

I have tried the following in order:

• I have tried step #1,2,3,4 here: How to Fix Windows Boot Error 0xc0000098 Quickly In fix #3, Bootrec /fixboot gave me "Access denied" so I stopped there.
• I have also tried the solution involving diskpart suggested by u/Tekkie_Boy here: Windows Says Boot File is Missing | Error Code 0xc0000098 : Windows10
  I got "Boot files created successfully" but the same error occurs after windows is restarted.
• Bootrec /rebuildbcd gives me "the requested system device cannot be found" after it finds 1 identified Windows installation and saying yes to installing it to boot list.
• Macrium Reflect Rescue USB's "Fix Windows boot problems" option didn't work.

Could someone help me please.
