Had one this week.  Win11 update went wonky, never fully booting.  Could not do anything useful in recovery console until I got into her MS account for the bitlocker key.  Fortunately I had left the ms account info on the sales order from when I originally set the laptop up last year some time.  I was able to do a non-destructive Windows reset.
