What happens when you click Turn off in Settings?

I'm here to help you.
If your device is encrypted with BitLocker, to deactivate it, what you have to do is the following, Start in the Windows operating system
Open the Manage BitLocker windows
Click Disable BitLocker
disable BitLocker
Confirm the decision to disable BitLocker
Disable BitLocker
Let the system decrypt
Regards.
