    Hello @Shahar Reuven ,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    The device must be Azure AD Joined or Hybrid Azure AD Joined, because Bit-locker recovery key store on AAD under device objects also make sure Windows 10 operating system is up to date with latest release.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi, check if you're connected as a local admin account and if the professionnal account is set up correctly:

    You can simply add the office 365 user into "Access work or school" in system settings and make the user as local admin. After restart, you will find the option "Save to your Azure AD account".

    To my knowledge even PC's MDM joined (devices managed via microsoft intune)
    You will be able to store bitlocker keys on Azure.If the device is joined to Microsoft Entra ID, the BitLocker recovery key can be stored in the Microsoft Entra ID associated with the device.
