I'm thinking about turning off bitlocker on my Win 11 PC. Has anyone here done that after years of use?  Is there a chance of loosing any data? I do have external backups but I don't always backup every file.

I turn bitlocker off, you wont lose any data but it'll take an hour or more to decrypt your data depending how much data you have on your drives. Its really stupid for Microsoft to force users to encrypt their data, i understand for business users but not for the average user.....
