Windows 10: My laptop is now a brick after latest Windows 11 update.

I've run an update from the icons in the bottom right which told me the process should take 4 mins and restart my laptop. I've come back to it and I can't get past the manufacturer splash screen see image. I can't switch it to safe mode, it doesn't respond to any key inputs and the best I get is the words "Preparing Automatic Repair".

I know this is going to blow your mind, but I've had bios bricks and I do laptop refurbs for a living. It happens... Particularly when the flash program is windows only and drivers are amuck.

Windows 11 Update from Windows 10 Bricks laptop with Bitlocker

Thank you for the suggestions.

1. The Key is not in the owner's Microsoft account or on OneDrive

2. A clean rebuild from USB does not work because no drives are found to install the OS.

3. I feel this is an issue for Microsoft or ASUS support. MS bricked the laptop when they pushed Windows 11.

4. I can find the ASUS support website.

5. Do you know the website for creating a Microsoft Support ticket?
