FVE_E_AUTH_INVALID_CONFIG
FVE_E_AUTH_INVALID_CONFIG means that Boot Configuration Data protected by BitLocker measurements changed after the TPM protector was configured. The automatic unlock was refused so that recovery can confirm the change is authorized.
How to investigate
- Use the approved recovery method for the affected volume and record the recovery event.
- Check for legitimate changes to boot settings, firmware, startup repair, or deployment tooling.
- Avoid deleting or recreating BCD entries until recovery material and the intended boot configuration are verified.
