My computer says it needs a bitlocker recovery key. I can't access my computer at all. My microsoft account does not have a bitlocker key associated with it. My device is not registered with my Microsoft account. I cannot reset my computer either. When I go to reset it, the computer says there was a problem resetting it.

    I cannot copy and paste because I am unable to log into my computer.

    I retyped the address and I got the same result.

    Error code 87 usually indicates that there are invalid arguments in the command. Verify that you are running the correct command. Here's the correct 'DISM' command format to restore health:

    1. Run Command Prompt as administrator. You can do this by searching for "cmd" in the start menu, right-clicking on the Command Prompt app, and selecting "Run as administrator".
    2. Run the following command in the command prompt: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Make sure that every character and space in the command is correct. If you're still encountering errors, here are a few things you might want to consider:

    • Make sure you are connected to the internet, as 'DISM' requires downloading the necessary files from Microsoft servers.
    • You may need to run the following command first to check the health status of the component store: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth Then, if you need to repair the component store, run: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, you can try using Windows installation media (such as a USB installation disk) to perform the repair.
