  1. Why won't BitLocker let me enter my recovery key to unlock my laptop?


    I have a new HP 17.3 laptop with Windows 11. Two days ago, I found that BitLocker locked me out of my laptop. It said to enter the recovery key to get going again Keyboard Layout: US. I found my recovery key in my Microsoft account but couldn't enter it in the field on the BitLocker screen. The cursor was not active blinking. I need to be able to use my laptop. I have searched for solutions, but none that apply to my problem. How can I get BitLocker to let me type my recovery key in the field?

    :)

  2. BitLocker recovery key not working

    Hello, I have got a blue screen with request to enter BitLocker recovery key. I logged in to my account and used listed recovery key. But this recovery key does not help and there is no other option to get access to PC anymore. I looked into all possible information on web pages but still I did not find solution if you have bitLocker key but it is not working to unlock PC.
