I'm trying to disable BitLocker on my computer, but I'm not sure how to do it. I've looked in the settings, but I can't find an option to turn it off. Can someone help me with this?

After the "Manage BitLocker" option appears in the search results, select it to open the BitLocker Drive Encryption management interface. Within this interface, locate the drive you intend to decrypt and expand its details for further action.

To ensure a smooth and secure decryption process, it's recommended to use the built-in tools provided by Windows. However, for advanced users or those seeking an alternative method, the Command Prompt can be utilized.

To open the Command Prompt with administrative privileges, press the Windows key + X, then select "Command Prompt (Admin)" from the menu that appears. This ensures that the commands you enter will have the necessary permissions to execute properly.
