I recently changed motherboard on my laptop, had the bitlocker key if not I was told I'll have to reinstall Windows all over again.
Even with the key, one must decrypt and re-encrypt.
That's not true, the unlock key will be regenerated, but the disk contents will not be re-encrypted, because it's encrypted with another immutable key.
