You could use the Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit to flash back to stock and install a bootloader that doesn't have force encrypt enabled.
The latest I see on there is 2.8.6.0. Poked around quite a bit and haven't found .7.0 What am I missing? Same with the TWRP app.
Good question. I don't know the answer. Maybe we caught the OP between update to XDA and the download links not yet updated???
It's on it's way, http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-external-link/twrp-version-2-8-7-0-released/
Edit, I have 2.8.7.1 on my n5 and 2.8.7.0 on my i727. The n9 with it's 64 bit processor is probable taking more time to develop.

100% failure rate on the build server for us with the last attempt being three days ago - https://jenkins.twrp.me/
Unless they get around to us, we're not seeing a copy in the short term by the looks.

I think they might need a kernel patch to fix those errors.
2.8.7.0 is up on TWRP website for flounder.
Any ideas why I get this message on backup?
E: unable to locate '/and-sec' partition for backup calculations

Are you on the latest, official version of TWRP? If not, I would give that a try.
That would be 2.8.7.0? That's what I'm on currently

Well, I'm grasping for straws here, but you might want to try flashing back to 2.8.6.0. While I've had no trouble with the latest, some users have reported problems restoring backups.
Default TWRP password
I just flashed Nexus 9 M preview MPA44G and am trying to root but TWRP asks for a password. I've tried default_password and also the same with quotation marks to no avail. What am I doing wrong? I set my screen lock to password and tried that password as well. No luck. Anyone know what's up?

twrp does not support M yet
to root you will have to sideload or decrypt your storage
(sorry if this has been answered, but it's been a bit irksome)
Why is TWRP using the phone-style UI on a tablet? Or is there some option I missed to change it to tablet?

Hey everyone!
Cannot boot into TWRP for some reason on my Nexus 9. Running stock ROM, USBhost Fire and Ice kernel. Stock recovery works without a hiccup, but TWRP is just stuck at the bootlogo. Any guesses?
It worked yesterday, perfectly fine. I haven't made any changes to the system since yesterday, so I am out of guesses why this is happening now.
Tried:
1. fastboot erase recovery and flash twrp on top = failed
2. fastboot erase recovery and flash stock recovery = success
3. flashing twrp on top of solution 2 = fail
deleted TWRP folder with all the settings, still fails.
