Dear me, I am glad I am not a Windows 11 user.

Just rescued an elderly relative from a Windows (TM) dialog requesting credit card details to sign up to a Microsoft subscription. There was no obvious Skip button, and the user thought it was some type of scam. Success though, they can use their laptop again.

Ah well you need a windows 11 installation like mine, which has saved me from this problem by refusing to reboot today!

Splendid. Did you solve it with copilot?

No, I just rebooted about 100 times skipping the bitlocker key prompt, then eventually put in my bitlocker recovery key (once I'd found it) and it worked
