  1. Can't access my computer due to Bitlocker and I have no means of accessing the recovery key


    I opened my work computer today to find that it had been Bitlocked and it wouldn't let me in. Since this is a computer from an organization I no longer work with, I have no means of accessing the main email of this computer and thus I cannot get the recovery key. This has been very frustrating to me as there was no warning of this and I'm not really sure if there's a way to get around this.

    Not able to access Bitlocker Recovery Key

    Forgot my Bitlocker password for F drive.

    Not able to access recovery key. Couldn't locate the text file. Also not in Microsoft Account.

    Tried running this code in Command Prompt :

    <manage-bde -protectors F: -get >

    But it showed 32-digit "Password ID" and "Numerical password ID". Not able to recover the 48 digit recovery key. Is there any possible way to access my bitlocker recovery key.

    Bitlocker Recovery Key Not Accessible on Microsoft Account

    I am trying to access my computer that has had an issue turning on, now when it turns on it requests the BitLocker recovery key. I'm not certain it is saved or backed up on a USD or SD card, however under Microsoft support it gives the different ways to access
    the recovery key. On my Microsoft account it says "BitLocker ON (1 of 1 drives)" but the issue is when I click on the corresponding link "Get BitLocker recovery keys"
    it results in the following message:

    "Try a different URL
    We don’t have anything to show you at this link. Try searching for what you want, instead."

    Please let me know if there is another way to address this or be able to access the recovery key. I've already talked to support with three times with no helpful information. Thanks.
