Free Encryption 2.40.1.1 No decrypt after Vista Re-Install

Greets,

I installed the free encryption product, and after testing, encrypted a large directory that holds many important files.  I was able to access the files by typing in the password previously, so I know it was working.

I have now re-installed Vista and the encryption app, and now cannot access the encrypted files.  Now I have gone through the help files and searched the board for answers, but can't find anything.  I used a passphrase that is more than the 32 character maximum, but it worked before, so WTF?  If it worked before, I would expect it to work now...

What are my options for retrieval of these 67GB of important files?

Thanks,

MadMark

  • Hi MadMark,

    welcome to the forum and thank you very much for bringing this one up.

    Based on your description I would assume that the file header might be broken and that the file can therefore not be opened.

    In this case I would recommend to opened a new service call so that one can look into this.  When opening the case please provide as mayn information as possible (in case that you receive a error message please add a screen shot as well)

    Thank you very much!

    Regards
