You no longer have access to those files. You might as well delete them

When you create a folder or file and use EFS you apply an SID that is unique to your username.

When you reformatted your drive you deleted that association with you files and folders.

Take ownership of those files.

Take ownership of those files.

That doesn't work

If you think that "crackpassword is enough for me to stay away" then you don't want to find a solution to your problem....

This is not my issue. It's someone else's. I am just giving them a caution.

Cut your losses mate, delete the files and think ahead next time.

Your not listening to me, thats fine.

But I telling you you cannot recover those files. How do I know this, I tried it and read all the XP PRO books I have.

The only way to recover is if your on a network and the admin designated people to be a recovery agent.

poster is right once you delete the certificates that hold the encryption codes your done.
they are made once for that system ID
if you would have saved them and added them you are good to go
been there done that woops

there is no special software that will get it back (that I know of)

A hard lesson learned
