Symptoms

Users can no longer open files on a deduplication-enabled volume that's created with NTFS compression enabled at the root of the volume. Additionally, the corrupted files can no longer be recovered.

↑ Back to the top

Cause

This issue occurs because deduplication metadata that's stored on the compressed volume root becomes corrupted when a process writes in-place to a file on the deduplicated volume. The deduplication metadata that is stored on the compressed volume root is located under the System Volume Information (SVI) folder.
