  1. Bitlocker without an account?


    Hello, my dad's computer was returned completely blank after we had it repaired it didn't wanted to start, and the second drive is now suddenly blocked under bitlocker. The windows account now says "Dell" instead of the account there was previously, and the repair shop people won't say anything to us. Is there a way to unblock it somehow without an account? If I change the account would I be able to unlock it with that's account key?

    :)
