Windows 10: I need my bitlocker key but every time I go to the page I get "Try a different URL".

I signed in to my accounts and went through the procedure but when I hit "Manage recovery key" it takes me to the bad url.

This page is not working so I'm locked out of my computer.


Can someone help?
