FVE_E_POLICY_RECOVERY_KEY_REQUIRED
FVE_E_POLICY_RECOVERY_KEY_REQUIRED The effective BitLocker policy requires an external recovery-key protector, but the requested configuration does not include one. Encryption cannot continue until the required recovery option is supplied.
What to check
- Verify that the policy applies to the correct drive class and that an external recovery key is the intended recovery mechanism.
- Create the required protector using the approved storage location and organization process.
- Check the final list of protectors before encryption is considered complete.
