My laptop ask for recovery key
Hello, this is Emily.
Have you looked into the Microsoft account here to see if it is stored there? https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey
If you set it up with school or work account, it is worth checking here as well https://aka.ms/aadrecoverykey sign in with your work/school email credential in that case.
If you cannot find it, you will have to try to recall who set up your computer initially. It would be with THAT account that set it up at first.
