Problem in Decryption
Hi all,
I recently messed up with my system.....
A few months ago i encrypted certain files and folders on one of my
NTFS partitioned drives E: in XP Pro.....
I don't know that all encryption keys and certificates will be stored
in my (user) profile and in my OS-installed drive,which in my case is
Drive C:
A few days ago i formatted my C: drive to install a fresh copy of my
OS...
After successfully installing,i found to my dismay that i was unable to
access those(encrypted) files and folders denying access to me,the
administrator!
now i am completely unable to even view them.....
i've used certain softwares that help view NTFS files.....
I was able to open them,but,they appeared to me only in the encrypted
form...!!!
when i tried to decrypt them with many encrypt/decrypt softwares they
first instruct me to encrypt them and then decrypt which is really
annoying.
so,any software geek who knows how to tackle such a situation may
please post ur view as i extremely need those files....
Thanx in advance..........

Try contacting data recovery experts since the files are encrypted. Sometimes data recovery tools may not work so better consult on data recovery experts. But this might be expensive. Anyway if the files are that really important, you will do everything to recover them.
