Microsoft Recovery Tool available now, with instructions to assist with the Crowdstrike issue impacting Windows endpoints.

This will require physical access & 1GB USB. You will need admin rights (+ access to the Bitlocker key, if Bitlocker is in place).

@girlgerms It was bitlocker that caused us the most problems. For whatever reason (one we obviously have to look into) we did not have all the keys recoverable. Luckily in each case this happened it was a simple workstation.

@girlgerms This process is very old-school, I kind of liked that side of it honestly. We all got our steps in yesterday...

@sullybiker @girlgerms @Compuguy @cm @GossiTheDog It is possible to get around bitlocker without the key (passcode is needed). If you’re still looking up recovery keys, or goddess forbid reimaging, I can share our steps.

@Archnemysis @girlgerms @Compuguy @cm lol if only I had known yesterday. It wasn't too bad. mostly the time wasted head scratching.
