Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I know this is a long shot but I have an HP laptop which was was trying to run a linux live USB and in the process to turn off secure boot, I've managed to clear/restore the boot keys and now I'm hitting the blue Bitlocker screen asking for my recovery key.

 

In the BIOS menu, boot options. I've selected "Clear All Secure Boot Keys" and "Load HP Factory Default Keys". Is there any way to go back to a state where I can log in at the homescreen?

Hi,

I had the same issue with a dual boot. Even though I turned the secure boot back on it still needed the Bitlocker key to get back to Windows. You have to get the key from your Microsoft account:
