It might take a number of hours, depending on the size of the encrypted hard drive partition(s) . When decryption is complete, Drive Encryption is deactivated. If hardware encryption was used, the drive is instantly decrypted, and after a few minutes, Drive Encryption is deactivated. Once Drive Encryption is deactivated, you will be prompted to shut down the computer, if hardware encrypted, or restart the computer, if software encrypted. Logging in after Drive Encryption is activated When you turn on the computer after Drive Encryption is activated and your user account is enrolled, you must log in at the Drive Encryption login screen: NOTE: When waking from Sleep or Standby, Drive Encryption pre-boot authentication is not displayed for software encryption or hardware encryption.
