[ActiveDir] Decrypt Files from a no longer existing domain

If you can't find the cert that encrypted them or the cert for the Data Recovery Agent (DRA) (usually the domain admin) you are out of luck. They key to open the data is stored in the headers of the file and it is locked up with the private key for the user who encrypted it and the private key

I am not positive but if the domain admin had logged into a workstation at some point the cert may be in that profile. I would have to go to the RK to find the specific location. The recovery of encrypted docs is thoroughly documented. I just did a TechNet search and found reams of info I am sure

One possible solution would be to disconnect the network cable and try logging on as the user who encrypted them, assuming that their are credentials cached on the machine. -Original Message- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 03, 2003 10:14 AM To:

I looked in the profile on the server at the Administrators profile under documents and settings, there is a Crypto folder that contains a folder with a SID/GUID as the name of the folder. Inside there are three System Files. I am assuming that this is not the location, however is there a place I
