I have a serious problem with my Windows PC. I accidentally deleted my system variables so some features stopped working. I tried to reset my PC but it is protected with Bitlocker, I can't find my keys from my system because it's not working properly. My Microsoft is not showing my BitLocker keys. What can I do?

    Hello @Dinesh G

    Is the machine on prem and/or Azure AD joined? If it is, and the corresponding policies where configured and deployed correctly, the key might have been saved in one of the properties of the machine object in AD. In Azure AD you can find it sing the Azure Management Portal and / or Intune Management center
