SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_TAMPERED_BREADCRUMB_LOAD_INVALID
Where the failure occurs in Software Protection Platform
0xC004D317 maps to SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_TAMPERED_BREADCRUMB_LOAD_INVALID. This result belongs to the trusted store and secure-timer layer and narrows the operation to the protected state store that keeps namespaced entries, attributes, secure timers, trusted time, hardware binding, rearm state and integrity breadcrumbs. In concrete terms, the integrity breadcrumb loaded for the trusted store is malformed or fails validation.
This result already rules out several broad guesses: the failure is in breadcrumb loading, before comparison with current store data. Preserve its operation name, product instance and timestamp so a later retry does not hide the original failure.
From HRESULT to a verified cause
- Use read-only inspection first: preserve breadcrumb generation, serialized value, store generation and preceding shutdown/servicing event.
Inputs that distinguish this condition
- requested and actual data size
- trusted time, timer deadline and hardware-binding state
- tamper/recreation/rearm events in chronological order
- namespace, entry key and attribute name
- entry/timer flags including read-only state
Where it sits in the licensing pipeline
Trusted-store results concern protected persistent state; deleting the store can erase the evidence that distinguishes missing data, capacity, access, binding and integrity failures. To verify this, preserve breadcrumb generation, serialized value, store generation and preceding shutdown/servicing event.
A positive trusted-time or rearm/recreation result must be interpreted by HRESULT severity and the subsequent license state, not by treating every nonzero value as a fatal error.
Comparison with neighboring results
| Result | Different condition |
|---|---|
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_NAMESPACE_IN_USE | Compared with this result, a namespace operation requires exclusive ownership but active handles or transactions still reference it. |
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_TAMPERED_BREADCRUMB_GENERATION | Compared with it, the trusted store and its integrity breadcrumb belong to incompatible generations. |
SL_REMAPPING_SP_PUB_TS_NAMESPACE_NOT_FOUND | Compared with it, the requested trusted-store namespace does not exist. |
Recommended handling
Repair component/store integrity and rebuild only through supported licensing recovery.
Representative case: A truncated breadcrumb record cannot be decoded during service startup.
Actions that usually destroy useful evidence
- Do not use rearm as a generic repair for unrelated activation or integrity errors.
- Do not manually delete protected store files before collecting state and event evidence.
