how do i get past bitlocker?
i updated my bios which tripped the bitlocker and i dont have access to the recovery key at all, its not on my microsoft account anywhere, its not saved anywhere and i didnt even know i had it enable...
The BIOS update you performed changed the trusted measurements of the TPM (Trusted Platform Module), and BitLocker therefore determined that the boot environment had been tampered with, triggering recovery mode. The passwords you tried before were all incorrect because the recovery key is not a "password"—it is a 48-digit numerical code, and Microsoft account passwords, Windows product keys, etc., are all invalid.
