BTRFS driver breaks all formatting tools in Win11 21H2

Upon installing the BTRFS driver in Windows, all formatting tools and formats appear to break.

Diskpart cannot format partitions with the error the system cannot find the file specified. After cleaning the disk and running create partition primary the computer detects the volume as a btrfs partition, but it cannot be formatted or written to without cleaning the disk again. mkbtrfs.exe fails with the error FormatEx Failed format /fs:btrfs appears to work, but trying to create or move files to the new partition gives basic access denied errors format /fs:ntfs causes bluescreens Formatting to NTFS using the disk management GUI or the context menu format dialogue causes bluescreens;

I have installed the INF file & created the registry key as described in the readme, these errors are immediately apparent. After running pnputil /delete-driver btrfs.inf /uninstall both diskpart and the windows format tools appear to be working correctly.

Thanks - I'll have a look at this when I get the chance.
