I recently had a catastrophic hard drive failure. I managed to
recover most of my files using recovery programs and transfer them to
a new hard drive. The problem I am having now is that the files I had
encrypted are not recognized by Windows XP.
I still have the public and private encryption keys, so the encryption
itself is not the issue. The problem is the files appear as
unencrypted files with the extension .$efs. (ie: document.doc.$efs).
These files are not green like encrypted files typically are, but
otherwise appear as regular files that cannot be opened.
Any way to get Windows to figure out that these are encrypted?
Thanks
