Hello!
I'm spanish so sorry about my english ;-)
Firstly I want to say hello to this news.

My problem:
many months before I transform my partition FAT32 to NTFS and y encryp
many files with NTFS. Today I have format my Hard Disk and I can't open the
files that I encryp before. Is there any way to decypt those files?

Thank's you!
 
If
1. you have all of the old (encrypting) account's
profile folder in unchanged condition from old system
2. you did export and save the EFS key from old account
3. you had defined a data recovery agent in the old system
before the encrypted files were last used, and you did
export and save the EFS key for the recovery agent
4. your old system was a member in a W2k or later domain
and that domain still exists
5. you have a full backup of the old system with the system
state option made after the files were encrypted and you
remember the password of the encrypting account at the
time the backup was made
then any one of the above may allow you to get the files
back. None of the above, then files are forever gone.
 
thank's
