My new HP Pavilion came with bitlocker enabled.  I would like to disable it but there is no option to do so in the Control Panel.  I do see the option in Settings.  Is there anything I have to do other than select turn it off?

 

Edit:  the option is Settings is for device encryption.  I'm not sure how that differs from Bitlocker encryption.

I turned off "device encryption" in settings.  It took 30-40 minutes but it went off without a hitch.
