How can I bitlock a device without going through the appropriate menus and related software to lock and unlock a device?

Original title: ILO-locked usb device

I have a 64 GB... new USB key... and put music on it. After a while, I decided to use it for another use, but could not remove the files because the device is write-protected. I never write protect anything.

I had an individual look of microsoft cert to the USB and he said it was not locked.

I did some research on bit locker and Win 7 Pro and discovered that I can't find the Group Policy Editor where all bit locker said tech data is located.

So, how can I lock bit, a device without going through the appropriate menus and associated software application necessary to lock and unlock a device?

Hello

When you turn off BitLocker, you can either disable BitLocker temporarily or to decrypt the volume. Disable BitLocker allows TPM and other minor changes module changes the system. Decrypt the volume means that the volume will be entirely decrypted, and that all the keys are ignored. You must decrypt a computer before the operating system upgrade. Once a volume is decrypted, you must generate new keys through the encryption process again once, if you want to enable BitLocker.

Before you start
