    In the case of anything Bitlocker, best policy is ... If you have to ask ....

    How do you use it?

    I'm only asking because there are members here who need help with that "feature".

    I use BitLocker and I've not seen nor used that item before (yes, it's in my System 32 folder).

    If you need to suspend or turn off BitLocker that can be done from the Control panel rather easy. I see no need to mess with that item in the System 32 folder.

    You can also use Brink's context menu add and manage or turn off BitLocker via context menu when right clicking a BitLocker drive - Add or Remove Turn off BitLocker context menu in Windows
