Windows 10: bitlocker password forgotten

i forgot my bitlocker password i forgot to extract the bitlocker recovery key after changing the password i have only old recovery key how do i unlock my bitlocker

:)

 

bitlocker password?

I have the Recovery Key but that is not the problem. I have no bitlocker password - not lost or forgotten; it was never created. Sounds like you're suggesting I turn off bitlocker and just turn on again.
