Windows 10: Windows 11: Boot loop into Bitlocker entry screen.

I installed the 22H2 KB5012170 update but was not aware at that time that the update required two restarts. As a result during boot the system endlessly cycled through Bitlocker Entry Screen. In order to fix this boot loop I wiped the C:\ drive, and re-installed W11 from recovery USB. Question: does the old Bitlocker key remains or a new Bitlocker key will be assigned to the newly installed W11?

Are you entering the correct key on the recovery key entry screen?

BitLocker permanent loop

Hi, my tablet is running Windows 10. During restart yesterday it started configuring, presumably after a new update on wifi. At about 30% I got the blue screen asking for the BitLocker recovery key. When I finally retrieved it and entered it, it unlocked
and gave me another blue screen recommending a restart. I restarted and was landed back at the blue screen asking for the BitLocker key. I re-entered it and chose the advanced settings and chose "exit and return to Windows" This also sent me back to the blue
screen looking for the BitLocker. It seems to be stuck in a loop. Can anyone suggest what I can do to fix it please?

Hi, my tablet is stuck in a permanent loop with BitLocker. Whenever I put in the recovery key it begins to restart, then asks for the recovery key again. I've tried using the command prompt to unlock it, but it keeps giving me an error message about there
being an error while trying to retrieve the key from the disk. I'm currently travelling alone in Asia and this tablet is how I book all of my flights and accommodation and so on. Bringing it to a technician is not an option. I'm counting on help from you
guys!

Thanks,

Laura
