My friends activated the BitLocker in my computer but the recovery I am able to pull up does not match the key ID on listed on the computer. Is there another way to recover the key id? Could I possibly have made another account I don’t remember and if so, could I locate that by a phone number instead or some other way?
KEY ID-5D90E1C8 Thank you,

    Hi.

    Are you still able to boot windows? If so, log on as administrator, right click c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe and select "run as administrator".
    On the command prompt that appears, launch
    manage-bde -protectors -get c:

    That will display the current recovery password.
