BTW, I forgot this..... I'm the owner of the PC, the
administrator and only user of it. ALL my drives are with
NTFS format and the way I move the encrypted files is just
seecting the folder and moving them from one drive to
another.... There was no hidden file (ALL the PC is with
the hidden option disable) visible. After I moved the
folders I certified if the files where there...They
where!! But now I can't read them....
ALso.... each time I am doing a backup of the folders with
some encrypted files Nero denies the copy.... yes, I know
also that I must decrypt first to backup.... BUT I
CANT'T... Hope someone can help on this....perhaps
Microsoft.... Thanks in advance.....
