    How can I get a Bitlocker key when my contact number on my account has changed?


    Basically I was attempting to dual boot Ubuntu alongside Windows 11 but I forgot about the Bitlocker.It tripped when during the Ubuntu installation and when logging into my account to get the key I noticed my phone number was outdated. It's been a while since I've used my personal Microsoft account for anything.I've requested the phone number change but that's going to take 30 days and in the meantime I obviously can't even reset the computer.My questions are can this number change be sped up at all? Will I even have a key because I don't recall even setting Bitlocker up in the first place? Wh

    :)

    Bitlocker key can not be found in the microsoft account

    After a regular update of Windows my Notebook asked me for the Bitlocker Key although I never activated this. The device is listed in my account but in the list of keys it's not.

    Simply doing a reset is definitely not an option, the data is needed.

    Every single suggestion for how to find the key is absolutely useless so far.

    Bitlocker Recovery Key with university email

    I used a university email to sign into Windows 10 on my personal device and needed to take the laptop to a repair shop. They needed the Bitlocker recovery key to get out of a repair loop, but when I signed in with the Azure account, it signs me in, and
    lists the device, but there is no bitlocker key on the website. I contacted my university IT department and they told me to contact Microsoft because they do not keep bitlocker recovery keys for personal devices. I couldn't find a support page or number on
    the bitlocker page so I am coming here for any help possible. Thank you.
