It seems like you are encountering difficulties with BitLocker on your main partition during a Windows 10 installation. Here are some steps you can try to resolve this issue:

Method 1: Disable BitLocker from WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment)​

• Boot from your Windows 10 installation USB.
• Proceed with the installation until you reach the "Choose an option" screen. Here, select "Troubleshoot" > "Advanced options" > "Command Prompt."
• In the Command Prompt, type the following command and press Enter:

  cmd manage-bde -unlock C: -RecoveryPassword YOUR_RECOVERY_PASSWORD

  Replace YOUR_RECOVERY_PASSWORD with your actual 48-digit recovery password.
• Once the drive is unlocked, run this command to disable BitLocker:

  cmd manage-bde -off C:

• Exit the Command Prompt and restart your system to see if BitLocker is successfully disabled.
  

  Method 2: Clean Install Windows 10​

  If you are unable to disable BitLocker, you might need to consider performing a clean installation of Windows 10.
• Boot from your Windows 10 installation USB.
• Proceed with the installation until you reach the "Upgrade" or "Custom" installation screen.
• At the partition selection step, delete the BitLocker-protected partition and create a new one for the Windows 10 installation.
• Complete the installation process to set up a fresh copy of Windows 10. If you still encounter issues, you might need to seek assistance from Microsoft Technical Support or a professional to help you resolve the BitLocker-related problem during the Windows 10 installation.
