Windows 10: The Bitlocker Recovery Key page within my Microsoft Windows account will not display my...

Hi - When I try to access my Bitlocker recovery keys through my Microsoft Windows online account, I get the error as shown in the attached image. I have several recovery keys stored in my account and have never had this issue. This happens regardless of the browser that I'm using Edge, Chrome, and Mozilla and regardless of machine one Windows 10 and the other Windows 11. Why am I not able to view the page in my account with my bitlocker recovery keys?

Bitlocker Recovery Key

No, no other accounts.

What puzzles me is why the Bitlocker recovery key is not listed on the microsoft account, but there is a recovery key listed there for a computer I do not recognise.

I have several laptops but only the HP Envy has had Bitlocker on it. So what key is this on my account? And why isn't the Envy key there?

 

Cannot Save Bitlocker Recovery Key to Microsoft Account

I have a brand new Surface Pro with Windows 10. I am attempting to enable BitLocker.

From the Control Panel / Manage Bitlocker, I click "Turn on BitLocker".

I am given a question, "How do you want to backup your recovery key?" and I choose, "Save to your Microsoft account."

I am greeted with a popup, "Bitlocker Drive Encryption error. Can't sign in to your Microsoft account. You need to be signed in to Windows with a Microsoft account to save your recovery key. Sign out and hen sign in with a Microsoft account, or go to
Settings and choose Accounts to change your existing account."

I am signed in, but I went through these steps again, but I am unable to save my recovery key to my Microsoft account.

How do I fix this?
