Hello! Has anyone else encountered issues with parsing a WebCacheV01.dat file obtained from a Windows 10 system?

I'm using the latest version of Log2timeline from a SIFT workstation VM and cannot successfully parse the file. The resulting plaso file indicates there are 0 events. However, I can successfully parse the same WebCacheV01.dat file using other tools.

Just wondering if this is a known issue regarding the WebCacheV01.dat artifact from windows 10 systems. Thanks in advance!

$ log2timeline.py --version
plaso - log2timeline version 20191203

$ log2timeline.py test.plaso WebCacheV01.dat
