Cause

The file reports itself as Encrypted, however is not really encrypted. As a result using Microsoft Windows procedure to read encrypted data from file fails.

Solution

As a workaround, to avoid this warning exclude this file from your file backup: the file that causes the error can be found in error log after "path" (e.g. path: \\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy8\data\document_01.docx )

You can still protect this file by running an image backup of the entire disk or volume.
