How to turn off encryption on internal non-removable ReadyBoost devices

I read here that "hardware manufacturers" can disable encryption on "internal, non-removable ReadyBoost devices": http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ff356869.aspx

I also find the particular setting here, for unattended setup: http://207.46.16.252/en-us/library/ff715772(WS.10).aspx

It specifies an "EnableEncryption" key which defines whether ReadyBoost on internal non-removable devices are encrypted. Unfortunately it defaults to "true".

However, I haven't been able to find out where I might be able to change the same setting on an already-installed system. It doesn't appear to be in Local Group Policy, and I haven't been able to find something like it in the registry either. If someone can point to where this setting might be changed, it would be really helpful.
