Many recent posts here on the HP Community Forum are reporting a recent Windows update has caused Bitlocker to activate the recovery mode. See these articles for reference:

I feel the Moderators should withhold the normal response (quoting the Rules of Participation, and locking the thread) to a request for help until MicroSoft comes up with a repair for the issue! New users are buying HP computers, following the suggested updates from MicroSoft, and losing control of their computers!!
Perhaps a response akin to "HP is aware of this issue, and is waiting for an update from MicroSoft" I would also like to suggest HP Support do some research into the issue and make some positive suggestions instead of just slamming the door"... 😞
