### <a href="" id="bkmk-examplesosrec"></a>What causes BitLocker to start into recovery mode when attempting to start the operating system drive?
Because BitLocker is designed to protect your computer from numerous attacks, there are numerous reasons why BitLocker could start in recovery mode. In BitLocker, recovery consists of decrypting a copy of the volume master key using either a recovery key stored on a USB flash drive or a cryptographic key derived from a recovery password. The TPM is not involved in any recovery scenarios, so recovery is still possible if the TPM fails boot component validation, malfunctions, or is removed.

- Adding or removing hardware, such as inserting a new card in the computer, including some PCMIA wireless cards.
