My hard drive is encrypted with Bit Locker and I can't unlock it. What should I do
I'm using an NVMe SSD on Windows 11, and I previously enabled Bit Locker for full disk encryption. But today, after booting up, I encountered the following situation: the system prompts "A recovery key is required to unlock the drive." The recovery key I found after logging into my Microsoft account is invalid. What could be causing this? I recently performed a Windows update and also upgraded the BIOS, so I'm unsure if that's related.
Which WiFi card to get for Windows 11?
Hey, really basic question. I recently bought a Dell Precision 3460 i5-12500 and need to get a wifi card. Which one do I get? Are the ax210 and ax211 interchangeable on this model, or is there a better one than these I could get? I haven’t had much experience with anything other than Macs hence why I’m unsure. The computer hasn’t arrived yet so I can’t look at the slot either. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!Sleep issues crashing my PC

I’ve been trying to switch boot drives for almost a week. My Windows 11 PC is currently stuck only booting into bios. I reset cmos. Adjusting all settings before and after. Nothing is working. When inserting the windows installer usb that worked just a couple days ago, still nothing. Would it help if I wiped the new nvme I’ve been trying to set up (at multiple points seemed like I had successfully set up). I’m genuinely at a complete loss here. Please help me. If I do a secure erase of windows and everything on the drive will that potentially allow me to reinstall windows or will it make my problem worseAnyone knows what causes the Microsoft .NET Framework exception?
It appears pretty frequently and usually when my PC is idle for a few minutes. I've tried reinstalling the net frameworks and couple other things like scanning for integrity issues, but nothing seems to help. Using Windows 11 (had the same issue on Windows 10 so I thought updating would fix it.) I don't know if its a separate issue but I'm also facing a separate issue regarding blue screens due to kernel power failure. It could happen up to multiple times a week. Just wondering if the below event viewer numbers are of concern.

Windows Activation problem
Hello, Since 2012, I've had a Windows "Retail" activation key that I transfer from one PC to another without any problems. When I bought my current PC with Windows 11, I had no issues activating it with this key. Due to a problem, I had to reinstall Windows 11. Unfortunately, this key is no longer accepted: when I enter it, I get this message: "The product key you entered doesn't work. Check it, and then try again or enter another one. (0x80041014)" Thank you for your help. SincerelyHow to Setting Up Wi-Fi On Windows 11
