file encruption
I recently had to copy excel and word files, that were encrupted, to a new
drive and reformat and reload all software...Windows XP Professional, Office 2003 etc. I can open all applications/file types except for a folder of Word & Excel that was encrupted. These files give me access demied. If I look at "properties, advanced, details I see one entry which includes part of a certificate plus my name etc. Any idea's on were to go from here |

I stumbled on that too. BBQ: You may want to post this question on an XP forum as the problem is really about Windows encryption, not Excel/Word. I would be interested to know what you discover though. When you encrypt a folder in Windows XP, access permissions are tied to your user account. Since you copied the folder elsewhere (carrying permissions with it), then reinstalled XP, I believe the permission are now effectively tied to another user -- i.e., you, but in the previous installation -- who no longer exists. |
