  1. I can’t get this bitlocker key it’s asking me


    So I have a laptop rog strix and I was changing my user name for the account I was using by the way I use a local account and after I logged my self out and forgot the username so I try to reset it but bitlocker stopped me from doing so and I get a thing that talks about a old laptop I used in 2022 and that laptop died so I am wondering what do I do

    This information is absolutely NOT helpful as no information is provided. I cannot get anyone to answer my question and now my Surface is stuck in safemode as a result of being unable to recover the Bitlocker. It would have been useful to know when first
    getting this now useless piece of equipment as a gift that a Bitlocker key was going to be needed at some point in the future! All of this came about because of the wonderful power driver state failure which results in the inability to connect to the Internet
    and me trying to fix it. Now instead of being able to periodically use my Surface, I cannot use it at all!!!!
