I apologise for having to ask this
but i have WinXp installed on my comp also
a few days ago, my computer encountered an error which
ended with me having to format my windows partition and
reinstall winXP. and thus my problem is this. because
winxp is newly reinstalled, i can't seem to get my
preciously encrypted files to decrypt.

when refering to the help, it says that i should use the
admin account to decrypt it. however the i am unable to do
so. I realised that my protection certificate is
apparently not in the trusted folder.

How do i decrypt the files and recover them.

i would greatly appreciate any help. all my recent college
assignments are all under encrpytion and it would be a
great relief to get them back if possible
