For hosts that manually enroll, end users are forced to enable disk encryption. The key gets escrowed the next time they log out and log back in. For both enroll methods, end users can't defer. For Windows, currently disk encryption is enforced on the C: volume (default system/OS drive) only on hosts with a [TPM chip](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/what-s-a-trusted-platform-module-tpm-705f241d-025d-4470-80c5-4feeb24fa1ee).
