I have tried all availble options. I found the previous post, and this is not helpful. It is for if you have a bitlocker ID. 

 

I DO NOT HAVE THIS. I have never set up Bitlocker. I do not have a key, password, or account. I spent 12 hours over 2 days (while on vacation in Mexico) on the phone with your troubleshooting team. It was then determined that I needed to warranty the computer, since I am completely locked out. I have now spent HOURS on the phone trying to do this, only to be transferred endlessly, with no one who can seem to figure out how to do this. I have had this laptop for 5 months. I have a factory warranty. 

 

While in Mexico, we were told to go find a USB drive and download Windows to completely force a reset of my computer. 4 hours later, that didn't work. None of the other solutions for troubleshooting provided by HP tech team has worked. Now, every time I call, I am just hung up on. I spent over $1000 on this laptop, and now it is completely encrypted. I have a factory warranty that I can't even use, because I just get stuck in a cycle of transfers, and no one will help me. I am a teacher and PhD student, and have now not had a computer for 5 days. I am typing this on an old, completely insufficient device. 

 

I need help. Don't just copy paste the solution with where to find the key. Actually have a PERSON (human species-not a bot) read this and respond.
