How to Use the Self-Service Portal to Regain Access to a Computer
Platí pro: Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring 2.5
The Self-Service Portal is a website that IT administrators configure as part of their Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring (MBAM) 2,5 deployment. The website enables end users to independently regain access to their computers if they get locked out of Windows. The Self-Service Portal requires no assistance from Help Desk staff.
The following instructions are written from the perspective of end users, but the information may be useful for IT administrators to understand.
Důležité
An end user must have physically logged on to the computer (not remotely) at least one time successfully to be able to recover their key using the Self-Service Portal. Otherwise, they must use the Helpdesk Portal for key recovery.
End users may experience lockouts if they:
Forget their password or PIN
Change operating system files, the BIOS, or the Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
Poznámka
If the IT administrator configured an IIS Session State time-out, a message is displayed in the Self-Service Portal 60 seconds prior to the time-out.

In the Reason field, select a reason for your request for the recovery key.
Click Get Key. Your BitLocker recovery key is displayed in the Your BitLocker Recovery Key field.
Enter the 48-digit code into the BitLocker recovery screen on your computer to regain access to the computer.
