    1. Visit https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey on another device.
    2. Sign in with the Microsoft credentials you used to set up your Surface.
    3. Your recovery key will be there.

    See Microsoft ref:

    Find your BitLocker recovery key

    If you absolutely cannot locate your BitLocker key, you have these options:

    Contact Microsoft Support.

    Reinstall Windows completely, which will erase all data on the drive.
