BitLocker Recovery not registered with my account

Question

Hi, My laptop is locked now with Bitlocker. I was trying to change some security boots setting for some purposes and suddenly windows partition is encrypted ridiculously with no reason.

I logged into my account and found this computer within the connected devices, but unfortunately when i go to "Manage recovery keys" it says "you don’t have any BitLocker recovery keys uploaded to your Microsoft account"

Is there anyway that I could get the BitLocker recovery key,

Thanks

Hello,

Unfortunately, the only way to recover the BitLocker key is through the MS site options below, please I suggest you take a look at the information.

If you still locked out of your device due to BitLocker, but the recovery key is not in your account, then, unfortunately, there is not much you can do besides formatting your drive. BitLocker is highly secure, and without the recovery key, the data cannot be accessed.
