Disable BitLocker automatic device encryption
For devices that support it, Windows 11 automatically enables BitLocker device encryption. Disabling this will turn off automatic encryption of the device, but you can still manually enable BitLocker encryption if desired. Drives that are already encrypted with BitLocker will remain encrypted when this setting is applied.
Code to Apply
