Windows 10: I have bought a Microsoft SURFACE-GO C: BUT THE SELLER DIDN'T GIVE ME THE BITLOCKER...

Bitlocker recovery key unknown. The problem is that the person who owned this device has not been back to my house to get it. He owes me money so is there away for me to unlock this SURFACE-GO C:Without the recovery key or password for this device.

problem with bitlocker

Hi Roeslie,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

We need some more details to help you find the solution to your problem.

• Which edition of Windows 10 is installed on your surface machine?
  
• Did you notice any changes on the computer recently?
  
• When you say, you have a problem with your Surface machine about BitLocker key, do you mean that the surface machine asks you to enter the BitLocker key to allow you to sign into Windows?
  
• Does the other computer ask you to enter the BitLocker key to allow you to access the files saved on it?
  

If you are being asked to enter a BitLocker key to sign into your surface machine and you don’t remember your BitLocker key, you can follow the instructions given in the link below to find the BitLocker recovery key.

BitLocker on Surface Pro 3 not working correctly

Hi JulianSchubert,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community

TPM will lock itself out after a few incorrect authentication attempts. These could be due to incorrect PIN entry for BitLocker or incorrect PIN entry for TPM virtual smartcard PIN. For TPM version 1.2, the lockout behavior depends
on individual TPM manufacturer. For TPM 2.0, the specification states that the TPM will enter lockout after 32 incorrect attempts.

To terminate this BitLocker recovery loop, you need to suspend BitLocker within WinRE, I suggest you to follow the below steps.

Step 1:

1. Choose the “Skip this drive” link at the bottom of the page where you are asked to enter the recovery key. You should be presented with a menu that will let you get to a command prompt (The sequence is Advanced
   options -> Troubleshoot -> Advanced options -> Command prompt).
   
2. Once you have a command prompt,
   use the following command to check the BitLocker status of the C: drive:
   manage-bde -status c:
   
3. If the status is returned as locked, you’ll need to use the following command to unlock it using your recovery password:
   manage-bde -unlock c: -rp <your 48-digit recovery password>
   
4. Once the drive is unlocked you'll need to use the following command to suspend protection:
   manage-bde -protectors -disable c:
   
5. Then exit and reboot. The computer should now successfully boot Windows. Once there, use the BitLocker control panel to resume BitLocker protection.
   
6. You can reset TPM lockout using
   tpm.msc
   

Note: The recovery loop can occur for other reasons such as cases where TPM is disabled or malfunctions. You can still use the above steps to suspend BitLocker and boot Windows in such cases

Hope it helps.
