Windows 10: Bitlocker not accepting key and can't access laptop

I have had my new computer for only a few months, but suddenly I am now locked out with bitlocker requesting a recovery key. This I found on in my Microsoft account, however it's still not opening. I did try 'reset this PC' keep my files, but it tells me there was a problem and no changes were made.

Lenovo X1 Carbon Laptop not accepting Bitlocker Recovery Keys

The eight-digit key is the key ID that tells you what recovery key to use (imaged edited for security reasons...

Here you see the Key ID code and next to it is the corresponding recovery key. So if the codes E80024E, you'll need to find the corresponding key which here would be 16965-175505.... That's the 48-digit key you need to input. Hope that helps *Wink
