Hello Joachim!

I get the following fatal error when exporting logs using evtxexport (b524d6b):

Unable to export file.

I isolated the broken record in the attached broken.evtx.gz file. This file can be opened in Windows Event Viewer, it corresponds to "The VSS service is shutting down due to shutdown event from the Service Control Manager. %1". Yet, the record is 68KB ?!?

$ evtxinfo broken.evtx
evtxinfo 20190904
