I had one problem I tell you in detail. I had a folder on my hard drive in
which I save my pictures & some important MS Word files. once I am checking
the properties of the folder I press right click on the folder then taking
properties there is an option "Advanced" I click on it to check what is
inside a new tab oppened here on the top "Advanced Attribute" is written at
the bottom there is a check box "Encrypt options to secure data".I click on
this check box to see what happens & click on apply button but very unluckily
from now I am unable to open any picture or my MS word file file in this
folder it when I open any image file it gives an error message "No preview
available" and on MS Word files "access is denied". Even though I again
taking the properties & uncheck the option of "Encrypt options to secure
data" but when I press apply button it gives me an error message "acces is
denied". I am unable to acces any fil in this folder. I. please send me the

the encryption key is simply
based on the windows
"login&password" for
that user.

other users with a different
login&pw are simply locked out
from accessing those files/
folders.

the files should be available
like any normal file or folder
when the initial login & pw
is used at the time the files
were encrypted/locked.

here is more info:

just reload your files from whatever you back them up to. you do
back up your data, right? otherwise, you'll likely need a PW
cracker if you accidently put one on but didn't realize it. and, in
future, don't experiment with a production folder! also, learn how
to compose a paragraph with proper capitalization that is almost
one big run-on sentence.
