Do you have any information about the process required to create a Bitlocker volume with a FVE metadata version 3 header? If we could create a example volume it would help in adding support.

I assume it is used in a recent Windows 10 BDE volume.

Not so sure. We tested on Win 10 Enterprise Version 1803 (May 2018) today and still saw version 1 volumes being created. We'll try Win10 Version 1809 (Oct 2018) next. But that doesn't really make much sense as you obviously encountered a Version 3 volume back in Nov 2017, when this issue was opened.

Must be some other factor that we don't know about.

This has surfaced again, with an image that comes from Windows 10 Pro 1803

Finally seen another instance of this for the VMK in a BDE volume with a clear key. No obvious format differences.

Added version 3 support to 4b879c6, closing issue. "version" value possibly not a version.
