Hello, my husband configurated my computer years ago with his microsoft account (A job account when he was working for microsoft), and now he can’t access his account. I need my id bitlocker to recover my data. Is there any way so that we can find this bitlocker?

    Unfortunatelly I don't think so. It sounds like you have configured a computer for home use with mandatory Microsoft Account and your husband used his employee working email adress for MS account registeration. Only way is somehow try to recover his MS Account, but if he does not have access to his email anymore, it could be difficult.

    Anyway, Bitlocker recovery keys always goes behind device registeration in MS Account, when a home user installs a Windows computer and applies his MS account while installation.
