EFS issue

[Chuck]

Hi. I recently discovered I could not get into my encrypted
files. This is on a XP pro box that is not/never on a
domain. I have logged into this account always and it has
admin rights. I did however change my password a week ago,
and I suspect that had something to do with it. I know my
old password.

Anybody have an idea how I can recover these files?

Chuck;
Change the password back.
Hopefully you changed the password and did not reset the password.
