FVE_E_POLICY_PASSPHRASE_NOT_ALLOWED

FVE_E_POLICY_PASSPHRASE_NOT_ALLOWED The requested password/passphrase protector is not permitted by the effective BitLocker policy. Password protectors are configured separately from recovery passwords and TPM startup PINs.

What to check

  • Confirm the drive type and the applicable password-protector policy.
  • Use an approved protector type, or have the policy owner explicitly allow password protectors where appropriate.
  • Do not substitute a recovery password for a regular password protector; they serve different recovery and unlock purposes.
