Guest SyberPenguin@gmail.com Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Ok, I have a wierd EFS issue. I have a customer who encrypted a folder with windows EFS. He then moved that folder to an external hard drive, and now he can not get any files off of that folder. He cannot decrypt it or move it back to his hard drive. The account that he encrypted form is still in tact(he is logged in while trying), nothing has changed at all. Is there a way to recover these files?
