FVE_E_LOCKED_VOLUME
FVE_E_LOCKED_VOLUME meaning
FVE_E_LOCKED_VOLUME has value 0x80310000. BitLocker reports that the target volume is locked. Operations that need decrypted metadata or file-system access cannot continue until a valid protector unlocks the volume.
Evidence to collect
Record the volume identity, lock and conversion status, available key protectors, recovery-key escrow state, boot or data-volume role, and the API or management command that returned the HRESULT. Do not log recovery secrets.
Recovery and retry
Unlock the volume through an authorized protector or recovery workflow, verify access, and retry the original operation. If the protector is unavailable, preserve metadata and follow the organization recovery process rather than disabling or reformatting the volume.
