Try word wrap first.

Try word wrap first.

Doesn't work.

Anyway, I can provide this file because reconfigured the BitLocker encryption so doesn't need the old key-identifier. They are all changed. You can try and detect the actual problem yourself.

bitlocker_old.txt

Not sure what character it is, but it breaks the file stream in WinRT API or makes it think it is the end of the file stream. Let me dig more into it.
