Required to Enter Bitlock Code

Hi Ben,

Since your issue is related to BitLocker codes, the troubleshooting steps that needs to be done requires advanced and complex configurations. Because of this, we might need to refer you to our Microsoft TechNet forums. For us to direct you to the correct
forum category, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Which build and edition of Windows 10 is installed on your device?
  
• Was your computer previously connected to a domain network?
• When you had your BitLocker set up, was it on the same hard disk drive?
• Is the computer a workstation or is it a personal computer?

If in case you'll experience an issue with BitLocker recovery keys, you can use this
link as your reference.

We are looking forward to your response.

 

Bitlocker Randomly Enabled

Hi,

On my personal Lenovo laptop, Bitlocker somehow randomly was enabled. I have not enabled it, and I followed the recovery steps without luck. It seems that it was enabled during an update. I logged into my Microsoft account, see that the laptop is listed, but there is no bitlocker key listed. I am at a loss on what the next steps might be for me to be able to log into my computer at this point.

Thanks.

• Which build and edition of Windows 10 is installed on your device?

The Windows is Version 10.0.16299 Build 16299.

• Was your computer previously connected to a domain network?

No

• When you had your BitLocker set up, was it on the same hard disk drive?

I don't really know, but I guess so. I was not even aware of the BitLocker until I was asked for the key. It only happened after they changed the motherboard.

• Is the computer a workstation or is it a personal computer?

Personal.

I should emphasise that I am only asked for the key sometimes.
