Hi,
If you talking about EFS encryption, then to decrypt file(s) you need
certificate used to encypt files berofe system crash. Without previous
cerificate your file(s) is/are lost.
Some about EFS

I recently had a major system crash, requiring a new operating system
install. I was able to save many of my data files, though I lost all
windows
system files and MS applications.
I had encrypted a personal directory, and I see that it managed to be
saved,
as it is in the 'USERDATA' file that was created. However it will not
allow
me to open it, move it, delete it, or view its content. When I rebuilt my
Windows profile I used the same username and password info, but it still
will
not open.
There is no prompt for a password as it was accessible only to my logon
profile with no other security, so only I could view or open it when
logged
on.
How can I decrypt this folder?
Thanks
Doug
