Windows 10: Bitlocker encryption is anoying and dont know how to turn it off

Recently a bitlocker encryption blue page turned on for some reason on my Dell Inspirion7500. Now every time i turn on or restart my pc it will ask for the Recovery Key which is like 48 characters long and i dont want to enter that every time i use my pc. I tried going to device encryption in update and security and it shows that device encryption is turned on at the upper right it also shows Bitlocker settings but when i select it it only shows my OS and an option to back up recovery key but there is no turn off option like i see other people have. I also looked at youtube videos that show so
