My office laptop harddisk crashed last week, but luckily the service
guy that came to pick it up was able to recover an encrypted folder and
burned that folder on a CD which he gave back to me. The service guy
doesn't know my password (I didn't give it to him), so I am assuming
that the contents on the CD is still encrypted.
I have a new laptop now and copied the CD to my new laptop. winxp
recogizes the files/folders with the correct type and size, but
doesn't recognize them as encrypted (no green color) and I cannot open
any of them!!
How can I decrypt this folder????
I tried logging in as admin and run the Certificates Manager to
configure admin as the default recovery agent for all encrypted files.
The problem however remains that winxp does not 'know' that this folder
was encrypted in the first place (or else it would have a green color
which it doesn't) and winxp doesn't recognize that its encrypted stuff,
so if I try to open a .pst, .doc, or .xls it doesn't work...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
