When updating to High Sierra, I accepted the kind offer (!) to turn on FileVault as part of the setup process. I've never bothered before, but thought "why not?" It's now been nearly two weeks, and I've realised that when plugged in to power, this is what's causing my MBPro to lag (as it stops encrypting when on battery power of course). But it's making slow/no progress (see attached) and I'm not permitted to perform a TimeMachine backup whilst it's in progress. Is there anyway at all I can either cancel it, or jumpstart it?
