I have locked my hard disk with bitlocker and after i converted my 32 bit windows 10 os into 64 bit my correct bitlocker password does not work (and i have lost my recovery key too) pls help me unlock my hard disk without formatting the disk!

1. The "conversion" from 32bit to 64bit was a full reinstall. This probably impacted your BitLocker credentials.
2. If your BitLocker password does not work, there is literally nothing you can do. There is no magic workaround.
If there were a workaround, BitLocker wouldn't be much good, would it?

Did you print the recovery key? Did you save it to a USB? Did you upload it to Microsoft servers?
