XP Pro SP1 workstation in domain, changed password, then encrypted files not accessible
IE Tools - InternetOptions - Content - Certificates shows multiple certificates for EFS
How do I choose the correct one for accessing an encrypted folder/file?
 
Password was changed at logon (as requested by near expiration)
Yes, it is NT4.0 domain and XP Pro SP1 workstation
I was aware of the KB article
I have tried changing password back to original, didn't help
Tools - InternetOptions - Content - Certificates now shows 4 certificates for EFS
Is something else missing
Are the encrypted files permanently not accessible? (I have backup of them)
