How can I remove bit locker option from my hard drive?

I have a password on one of my local hard drives using bit locker. now, I want to remove this password. How can I remove tht?

Hi HaBiB JHoN,

1. what operating system is installed on the computer?
2. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

Method 1
The best way to remove BitLocker on windows 7 32-bit is to follow the following steps.
a. click on start
b. click Control Panel
c. whereas the Control Panel, find the Bitlocker Drive Encryption icon, click on it
d. here you will see all the partitions on your hard disk and their encryption status, whether encrypted or not.
e. that is encrypted, you will find an option to turn off bitlocker. Click on it and wait for the machine to decrypt.

Method 2
To prevent losing access to drives protected by BitLocker in case of failure of the TPM secure, forgotten passwords or loss of smart cards or USB keys, it is important that you have a way for administrators to access to BitLocker drives. BitLocker supports the following methods to retrieve access to protected drives:

a. recovery key or recovery password. You can use a BitLocker recovery password or a recovery key. If a BitLocker key is not available, as in the case of a missing SmartCard or forgotten user password, a 48-digit recovery password can be used to unlock the protected drive. In place of a password, a recovery key which has been stored in a file on a removable media such as a USB flash drive, can also be used to unlock the protected drive.

b. backup key in Active Directory Domain Services. Password recovering BitLocker can be stored in Active Directory Domain Services. This allows administrators, such as the personal assistant of office help users retrieve drives protected by BitLocker when they have forgotten or misplaced their recovery password.

c. data recovery agent. A data recovery agent is the person designated as a system administrator, who can use his administrative credentials to unlock BitLocker-protected drives. BitLocker is not configured with the default data recovery agents, neither data recovery agents are enabled by default. They must be enabled and configured by using Group Policy.

Also take a look at the article:

    You need a better tool to show what of really take your disk space, see the following article:

    That being said, the slow performance may not be due to insufficient disk space.  There are many things that can cause slow performance.  Run this tool and send the report in a response.  This is nothing more than a tool which collects what is running on your Mac and shows all the details.  This will help me to identify what could be the cause of the downturn.
