Windows 10: How to stop Bitlocker notice in windows 7

I just reinstalled windows 7 on my okd computer which I use for playing older games. I updated windows 7 as much as I could from windows uompdate. Now I receive a notice upon start of windows asking me to back up my bitlocker key. I read articles here that said how to turn off bitlocker, but it does not show in control panel security settings. I do not care if my drives are encrypted, and never had this oroblem before reinstalling windows 7.
