So I had some encrypted files using the Windows file encryption on NTFS disk and I reinstalled windows xp. After that I logically couldn't access the encrypted files because of the encryption. Is there a way how to recover those files so I could access them? Reading Google most people say I'm booned, but I hope that I'm not and there is a chance to get all those files back..
Answer
If you have backed up your key ( .PFX file which contains your .CER file) then you simply need to import it and log off, then back on and your files should be accessible.
If you never backed up your key, I am guessing it is brute force time, but I wouldn't know where to begin to advise you here.
