Perhaps an external drive has stayed at 62%, or the system drive still says \u201cDecrypting\u201d after an overnight wait. Before changing settings, check whether Windows has paused the operation, whether the percentage actually changes, and whether the drive reports errors.<\/p>\n<p>This guide covers both Windows versions, including the different Settings paths for power management and Device encryption.

The commands below assume that Windows starts normally and that you have administrator access. Use the actual affected drive letter throughout. On a work-managed computer, ask IT before turning off encryption.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Keep the Computer Awake and Reduce Disk Activity<\/h3>\n<p>For <strong>BitLocker decryption not progressing<\/strong>, first remove avoidable interruptions:<\/p>\n<ol><li>Connect a laptop to its charger.<\/li><li>Open the power settings for your Windows version:<ul><li><strong>Windows 10:<\/strong> Settings &gt; System &gt; Power &amp; sleep.<\/li><li><strong>Windows 11:<\/strong> Settings &gt; System &gt; Power &amp; battery &gt; Screen, sleep, &amp; hibernate timeouts.

This is a practical comparison interval, not a failure threshold. A small change confirms progress; an unchanged rounded percentage alone does not prove a permanent stall.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/experience\/power-battery\/power-settings-in-windows-11\" rel=\"nofollow\">Windows 11 power settings guide<\/a> explains the current Settings path. Restore your preferred sleep settings afterward. Avoid ending Windows services or disabling security software merely to reduce disk use.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Resume Paused BitLocker Decryption<\/h3>\n<p>If the conversion status shows <strong>BitLocker decryption paused<\/strong>, run:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -resume C:<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Then check:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -status C:<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>The expected conversion state is \u201cDecryption in Progress.\u201d Compare the encrypted percentage later to confirm that work continues.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows-server\/administration\/windows-commands\/manage-bde-resume\" rel=\"nofollow\">resume command documentation<\/a> confirms that this command continues paused encryption or decryption. It does not repair unreadable sectors or other storage faults.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Try One Controlled Pause and Resume<\/h3>\n<p>If Windows reports active conversion but repeated checks show no change, one pause-and-resume attempt may help with a temporary stall. Use this only when the drive stays connected and shows no failure symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>First, pause conversion:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -pause C:<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Check the status and confirm that Windows reports the pause. Then resume:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -resume C:<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Microsoft documents <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows-server\/administration\/windows-commands\/manage-bde-pause\" rel=\"nofollow\">pause<\/a> as a conversion control. This sequence requests a pause and continuation; it does not reset the encryption metadata or guarantee a repair. If either command returns an error, save that message rather than repeating the sequence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do not confuse pausing decryption with suspending protection.<\/strong> Suspending BitLocker protection leaves data encrypted. Clicking \u201cResume protection\u201d therefore serves a different purpose from resuming drive conversion. Microsoft explains the distinction in its <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/security\/operating-system-security\/data-protection\/bitlocker\/faq\" rel=\"nofollow\">BitLocker FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Start Decryption Only If It Has Not Started<\/h3>\n<p>When the drive remains fully encrypted and your intention is to remove encryption, use:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -off C:<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Alternatively, use the encryption interface available on your device:<\/p>\n<table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Interface<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td><p><strong>Windows 10<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td><p><strong>Windows 11<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>Full BitLocker management on Pro, Enterprise, or Education<\/p><\/td><td><p>Control Panel &gt; System and Security &gt; BitLocker Drive Encryption<\/p><\/td><td><p>Control Panel &gt; System and Security &gt; BitLocker Drive Encryption<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>Device encryption on supported hardware, including eligible Home devices<\/p><\/td><td><p>Settings &gt; Update &amp; Security &gt; Device encryption<\/p><\/td><td><p>Settings &gt; Privacy &amp; security &gt; Device encryption<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n<p>In the full BitLocker interface, select <strong>Turn off BitLocker<\/strong> for the correct volume. In Device encryption settings, turn <strong>Device encryption<\/strong> off and confirm the prompt. Availability depends on the device, Windows edition, and organizational policy.<\/p>\n<p>If <strong>Windows 11 device encryption is stuck decrypting<\/strong>, use the same status checks before changing another setting. Device encryption uses BitLocker technology, so a different Settings page does not mean a different encryption engine. Microsoft&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/security\/encryption\/device-encryption-in-windows\" rel=\"nofollow\">Device encryption guide<\/a> explains the feature. A missing BitLocker Control Panel entry on Home does not prove the drive is unencrypted.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows-server\/administration\/windows-commands\/manage-bde-off\" rel=\"nofollow\">off command<\/a> starts decryption and removes key protectors when it finishes. It does not force a damaged drive past an error. If conversion already says \u201cDecryption in Progress,\u201d repeatedly issuing the command adds no useful diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p>Turning off BitLocker also removes the drive\u2019s encryption protection after completion. Confirm that this matches your goal and your organization\u2019s rules.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Check Connection Problems and Error Evidence<\/h3>\n<p>For <strong>BitLocker stuck decrypting an external drive<\/strong>, note whether Windows repeatedly disconnects it. Avoid unplugging the device during active conversion. If the drive remains responsive, pause conversion and safely eject it before changing a cable or port. Reconnect through a reliable direct connection, check the drive letter again, and inspect its status.<\/p>\n<p>If Windows cannot pause or eject it, do not force removal as a routine fix. Save the exact error and seek help.<\/p>\n<p>For internal or external drives, open <strong>Event Viewer &gt; Windows Logs &gt; System<\/strong>. Look around the time of the stall for disk, storage-controller, or NTFS errors. These entries do not prove one cause, but they help distinguish a conversion issue from storage trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid blanket repair commands while the only copy of your files remains at risk. In particular, do not start with <code class=\"dtec-inline-code\">chkdsk \/f \/r<\/code>, format the volume, or run DiskPart cleanup commands. Back up readable data first, then choose any filesystem repair based on the actual error and drive condition.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ci1pgi elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2ci1pgi\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Missing a Recovery Key?

However, no evidence here establishes a higher recovery success rate than Microsoft\u2019s account lookup. Use the methods as complementary options.<\/p>\n<p>After finding the correct 48-digit recovery password, you can unlock an attached data drive in File Explorer. Microsoft also supports this command:<\/p>\n<ol><li>manage-bde -unlock E: -recoverypassword YOUR-48-DIGIT-RECOVERY-PASSWORD<\/li><\/ol>\n<p>Replace the placeholder with your actual eight groups of six digits, including hyphens. Use the correct volume letter and keep the key private.
