Hi,


Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > FileVault > turn off Legacy FileVault > when it's finished decrypting, turn it on again if you want to, and this will be FileVault 2, which is compatible with High Sierra. I don't remember for sure, but you may have to turn off Legacy FV for each user that has it turned on.
