Can someone help me opening my encrypted files?

The batch file you posted will not lock anything. It will only hide/unhide folders, which anyone with next to no skills can get around. Even worse, the password ("MyPassword") is stored in clear text in the batch file. Running the batch file as Administrator
will not make the slightest difference.

You need to accept that encrypting files is a two-edged sword. It protects your files against access by other people but it keeps you out too in case you lose the key. Consider this thought: If someone had told you that a data thief could post your encrypted
file in this forum and get respondents to crack it, would you have used this encryption scheme? Of course not - it would be largely useless!

 

I've lost all my files to encryption after transfer and fresh boot

I could really use someones help here, I'm on the verge of panic.

I was running windows 10 but I decided to do a fresh install of windows 7 pro. So i backed up all of my files onto a 500gb passport type portable drive. Now after the transfer, both the files on my PC and the hard drive are showing as green. which after some research means they could be encrypted.

I've tried everything I've found online to be able to open them, including going onto properties and advanced, changed the permissions and unchecked the Encrypt box ( it was never checked) and they're still un-accessible.

I know a far bit about computers but I truly have no idea what to do?

Are my files gone forever? I don't want to believe I've lost 100gb of memories, I would be forever grateful if somebody could get this sorted for me.

Thankyou

 

Need someone to look at DMP files and address problem I've been having.

I've recently been having some problems while using my new laptop because it would crash all of a sudden and give me the message "SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION". After following all your recommended steps I have attained my two DMP files to be viewed and would
appreciate any help that can be given to me. Thank you
