    Random Auto-Locking of Computer Screen

    Nobody suggested checking out Event Viewer?

    When your computer randomly locks, search for, and open: Event Viewer

    Under Windows Logs, Check out:
    • Application
    • Security, and
    • System

    See if you can find something that states anything that could be related to your computer locking. The newest events are listed at the top of each section, so finding an event log would be pretty easy to find. Hopefully we can find what is causing the computer to lock.

    Locked computer

    I have been locked out of my computer - it is asking for a Bitlocker recovery key which I do not have and is not listed in my Microsoft account (although several other recovery keys are)

    The computer is listed as one of my devices in my Microsoft account but no Bitlocker key.

    How can I gain access to my computer?
