Hi [MENTION=17622]mdp[/MENTION],

To turn off BitLocker Drive Encryption, please refer the below steps:

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click System and Security, and then click BitLocker Drive Encryption.

2. Find the drive on which you want BitLocker Drive Encryption turned off, and click Turn Off BitLocker.

3. A message is displayed, informing you that the drive will be decrypted and that decryption may take some time. Click Decrypt the drive to continue and turn off BitLocker on the drive.
