If multiple changes are necessary to bring the drive into compliance, BitLocker protection may need to be suspended, the necessary changes made, and then protection resumed. Such situation could occur, for example, if a removable drive is initially configured for unlock with a password but then policy settings are changed to disallow passwords and require smart cards. In this situation, BitLocker protection needs to be suspended by using the [`manage-bde`](/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/manage-bde) command-line tool, delete the password unlock method, and add the smart card method. After this process is complete, BitLocker is compliant with the policy setting, and BitLocker protection on the drive can be resumed.
In other scenarios, to bring the drive into compliance with a change in policy settings, BitLocker may need to be disabled and the drive decrypted followed by re-enabling BitLocker and then re-encrypting the drive. An example of this scenario is when the BitLocker encryption method or cipher strength is changed. The [`manage-bde`](/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/manage-bde) command-line can also be used in this scenario to help bring the device into compliance.
