I have USB hard drive with an NTFS partiton on it. Some of the files on that drive are encrypted (standard Microsoft EFS - encrypting file system -- a feature of Windows 2000 and XP Pro). The drive works fine, no problems reading it on the computer on which it was made. Question: How do you access these files on another computer running Windows XP Pro (or presumably Windows 2000)? (in fact, the drive is a backup of the primary system's drive, so if the primary system's drive DID fail, the question would be very relevant). Things that have been tried: -export the "certificate" (.pfx) file from the source computer and import it into the destination computer. Still cannot access the files. -"take ownership" of the files. Still cannot access the files. There has to be a way to make these files accessible on a computer other than the one on which they were created, but I can't find out how to do it. Barry Watzman |
