    Hello,

    You can locate your BitLocker recovery key at following locations:

    • In your Microsoft account: Go to either of these links and sign in to your Microsoft account and locate your recovery key:

    https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey

    https://onedrive.live.com/recoverykey

    • On a printout you saved: Your recovery key may be on a printout that was saved when BitLocker was activated. Look where you keep important papers related to your computer.
    • On a USB flash drive: Plug the USB flash drive into your locked PC and follow the instructions. If you saved the key as a text file on the flash drive, use a different computer to read the text file.
    • In an Azure Active Directory account: If your device was ever signed in to an organization using a work or school email account, your recovery key may be stored in that organization's Azure AD account associated with your device. You may be able to access it directly or you may need to contact a system administrator to access your recovery key.
    • Held by your system administrator: If your device is connected to a domain (usually a work or school device), ask a system administrator for your recovery key.

    For more information, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4530477/windows-10-finding-your-bitlocker-recovery-key.

    Hope this helps!
