    File Encryption and Decryption Problem With Certificate Private Key


    Hi, so recently i had to do a backup and reset for my laptop and it is just after the reset that i realised that some of my files were encrypted. I had by luck been able to backup the certificates but cannot get access to the files still. It says that the private key is missing whe i try to export it. Any help thanks.

    :)
