Windows bitlocker

I’m pretty new to this, so sorry if I’m a bit slow, but I’m trying to reset the password on a company PC. Normally it’s straightforward just boot into WinRE and replace Magnifier with CMD but none of the usual methods to access WinRE are working. Shift + Restart doesn’t work, and forcing multiple failed boots just ends up loading Windows as normal.

I was able to get into WinRE using a Windows installer USB, but because it’s not the same environment, TPM doesn’t release the BitLocker key. That means the C: drive stays encrypted and I can’t access anything on it.

Has anyone got any ideas on what else could be done here?

fyi I have full legal rights to this pc been requested by a company to do this as the user is suspected in defrauding the company
