    BitLocker recovery bricked my laptop. After hackers had been targeting my Microsoft accounts for years—the consequence of which has been endless email spamming with recovery code requests even after periodic password changes—I became fed up and swiftly deleted my Microsoft accounts permanently. Unbeknownst to me, this also erased the recovery keys, as they are stored on accounts, but I no longer have any. I could not even fathom that

  2. URGENT Can't access or reset my laptop with Windows 10

    I wanted to add a new domain onto my laptop, however the laptop has locked me out completely and now it is asking for an administrator password. I have tried everything but nothing works. I have decided to reset my laptop but I can't reset it for some reason.
    Every time I follow the steps and the process is about to start, the screen goes back to the blue main recovery menu. Does anyone know how to bypass the password or force a reset? I also don't have access to the Microsoft account anymore that is linked to
    my computer so I can't retrieve my Bitlocker recovery Key either. I really need the files on my laptop for school so this is very URGENT.

    LAPTOP is not accessible ..... Access is denied.

    I am trying to share a folder on a LAPTOP. I have other a number of other systems that have folders Shared and they work fine, but with this one I get the error "LAPTOP is not accessible ..... Access is denied." when I try to access it from a different Win10 system. So I went thru the entire "How to Share Files and Folders Over a Network in Windows 10" tutorial step by step. File and Print Sharing is enabled, SMB1.0 client & server are running, and Everyone has Full Access to the Share. Still get the error. I have tried it with the Network Public and Private, with the same result. Any suggestions ? Microsoft Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042

    Bitlock recovery to reset password

    Hi,

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble accessing your PC due to a forgotten password. In this situation, you can try using the BitLocker recovery key to reset your password. Here are the steps:

    1. On the sign-in screen, click on "I forgot my password" or "Reset password."
    2. On the next screen, enter your Microsoft account email address or phone number associated with your account.
    3. You will be prompted to enter the recovery key. Copy and paste the BitLocker Recovery Key from your Microsoft account page where your device is listed under "Devices."
    4. Once you have entered the recovery key, follow the on-screen instructions to reset your password.
    If you don't have access to the BitLocker recovery key or if it doesn't work, you can try using the Windows installation media to reset your password. Here are the steps:

    1. Create a Windows installation media (such as a bootable USB drive or DVD) on another working PC using the Media Creation Tool provided by Microsoft.
    2. Insert the installation media into your locked PC and restart it.
    3. Press the necessary key to access the boot menu or BIOS setup, and select the installation media as the boot device.
    4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows.
    5. When you reach the screen where you're prompted to select the partition to install Windows, click on "Repair your computer" instead.
    6. Select "Troubleshoot" and then "Reset this PC" or "Advanced options" and then "Command Prompt."
    7. In the Command Prompt, type the following command to reset the password for the local user account: net user [username] [newpassword], where [username] is the name of the locked account and [newpassword] is the new password you want to use.
    8. Restart your PC and sign in with the new password.
    I hope this helps you regain access to your PC. Let me know if you have any further questions.

    Regards

    Shuaib
