Disable Automatic Bitlocker Encryption

If AES-128 is equally secure as AES-256, then I’ll just leave it set as Automatic Encryption.

Even MS decided to drop the BitLocker AES-256 requirement from their Security Baseline.

Would disabling Secure Boot before installing Windows should disable the Automatic Bitlocker Encryption in case I decide to disable it?

Disable Bitlocker Encryption on Windows 11 Home 2022

In case anyone else has this kind of issue, I can see now there is a form of encryption suspension available for Windows 11 Home, so it may be possible to keep the encryption while dabbling in Linux.

I chose to remove it anyway for now.

Unlike Windows Pro, it is buried and you need to use PowerShell.
