  1. Bitlocker recovery key required for windows starting


    Hi,


    My system is not getting started and when i go to trouble shoot, it shows me 'Startup repair'. On clicking this option, it asks me to enter 48 digit bitlocker recovery key. I tried getting this recovery key from my registered Microsoft email account, but when i enter this key, i get a failed attempt to move ahead. The system is not accepting this bitlocker key. I tried getting technical support from Microsoft call support, but they say that it is Dell who provides this information. On the other hand when i connected Dell, they said that it is Microsoft's area and they cannot help.


    Can anyone please help with the issue.

    Many thanks and appreciate your help

    :)
