Remove VI encryption key from file
Hi There,

I have set encryption key to my file using :X command.

Now that I no more need encryption key to the file, I just want to delete/remove the encryption key. I have gone through many source but in vain. None of the source provided me with the solution that I am looking for.

I would be really thankful if anyone can help me out in deleting/removing encryption key to file.

Thank you
