You are trying to create your recovery agents AFTER the files were
encrypted? That won't work... that wouldn't be very secure at all (it would
defeat the purpose of encryption if someone could just load it into another
computer and create a new recovery agent.
If you didn't back up your certificates, and you have trashed the original
Windows installation + the files that go with it, then your encrypted files
cannot be accessed. Sorry.
