Can’t open files, after format…

Guys, before formating my friends PC, I moved the needed files (pictures,mp3 etc.) on D:/ ,
but now, I can’t open them
the file names are with green, (I think they’re kinda encrypted)
Look this, maybe u’ll understand better.


Answer #1
There’s nothing you can do about it. The files are encrypted and the SID is different so you can’t authenticate to the files. I’m sorry but that data is lost. Only if you have the same username and I mean completely the same, including the computer name and everything and the encryption keys then there might be a chance to gain access to the files. Good luck mate ^_^
