FVE_E_POLICY_RECOVERY_KEY_NOT_ALLOWED
FVE_E_POLICY_RECOVERY_KEY_NOT_ALLOWED The operation requested an external recovery-key protector, but the effective BitLocker policy does not allow recovery keys for this type of drive. A recovery key is stored as a file and is different from the numerical recovery password.
What to check
- Identify the requested protector type and the drive category to which the policy applies.
- Use a recovery method that the policy permits, or ask the policy owner to change the configuration.
- Avoid copying or substituting recovery-key files from another drive; each protector belongs to a specific volume.
