症狀

Affected Operating Systems:

Windows 10
Windows 11

After the motherboard is replaced in a computer with BitLocker enabled and active, the computer will prompt for a Recovery Key at boot.

原因

This is working as designed. BitLocker causes this message by retaining the hardware key of the original motherboard, and the mismatch prompts for the Recovery Key. This is a result of not suspending or disabling BitLocker before the hardware change.

BitLocker prompting for recovery key

If Your Trusted Platform Module (TPM) enabled Dell computer has a motherboard replaced due to a no Power on Self-Test (POST) issue and you have BitLocker enabled within the operating system, you are required to enter their BitLocker Recovery key when booting to the operating system.

Note:
  • The BitLocker Recovery key may be enabled automatically after the motherboard replacement. For information about recovering or saving the BitLocker Recovery key, reference the following Dell Knowledge Base article: BitLocker is prompting for a Recovery key and you do not have the BitLocker key. If the motherboard is being replaced on your computer but the computer still boots to the operating system, it is advised that you find your BitLocker Recovery key before the motherboard replacement. If your computer is equipped with the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) capability, it is also advised that you decrypt the hard drive before the motherboard replacement following the steps provided in the following Dell Knowledge Base Article: Automatic Windows Device Encryption/BitLocker on Dell Systems
  • This does not require an operating system reinstall or a hardware replacement.
