    Bitlocker recovery key is asking after changing the mother board in dell laptop?


    Recently, I have changed mother board in my dell laptop. But it is asking for bitlocker recovery key. I have never enabled bitlocker before changing the mother board, so, I don't have any backup for bitlocker recovery key. How can bypass the bitlocker recovery key so that i can not loose the data. I have checked by Microsoft account but there is no any device displays. So I can't able to get back any bitlocker recovery key.

    :)

    Bitlocker recovery

    Hi my Dell laptop was fitted with a new mother board to fix an audio issue, however we have been asked for a bitlocker recovery key which doesn't seem to exist on my account. I don't recall activating this and there is nothing in my emails on the bitlocker
    application. Can I please have a call back to resolve this?

    Thanks

    Myron

    Asking for Bitlocker recovery key on login

    So I was playing with BIOS settings for reformatting my laptop and reinstalling Windows using bootable USB drive. I didn't succeed and I probably did something stupid. Now I'm not able to login into my laptop. It's asking me for bitlocker recovery key on both disabled and enabled settings of secure boot.

    On "Enabled" setting, it says "Bitlocker needs your recovery key to unlock your drive because Secure Boot policy has unexpectedly changed."

    On "Disabled" setting, it says "Bitlocker needs your recovery key to unlock your drive because Secure Boot has been disabled. Either Secure Boot must be re-enabled, or Bitlocker must be suspended for Windows to start normally."

    I don't have a recovery key. I don't remember setting one. I even searched for it in my Microsoft account. My device (ASUS X205TA) is listed but the recovery key is not.

    Note that I don't have any useful data in the laptop, so I'd be fine with reinstalling windows even if I loose all the data. I just want to be able to use my laptop again.
