I have tried repeatedly to get into bitlocker for my recovery key it will not work. The links don't load I'm stuck in a never ending loading loop. I replaced the graphics card to my PC and now need a stupid recovery key but can't get it because if I go to account then devices to the device more info bitlocker IT WONT LOAD my computer is essentially bricked because y'all decided oh let's add this security setting and not tell anyone. So because YOUR website WONT WORK I CANT FIX MY COMPUTER AND I CANT GET IN CONTACT WITH A RELA PERSON AND IM ANNOYED

    Since yesterday, there is currently there is a widely reported problem the Bitlocker Key section on Microsoft account online is inaccessible, this is a server side fault that Microsoft needs to fix, hopefully they may resolve the problem soon, because many people are trying to access their Bitlocker Recovery Key at the moment.

    Last night the Bitlocker Recovery section was not working here, but it is working now, so they must be working to resolve the problem at the moment.
