      I really think that this is a lost cause. If there was any path to recovery, Microsoft's EFS would be all in the news for having been completely broken.

        I have tried many different methods today logging her machine into the old domain, the program that was used ProfWiz, moved the certs I was able to copy them back. Still no luck after many tries.

        Boy this data must be worth a fortune. Considering your wage and the amount of time you've spent on it.

          And they are considering things like $300 software that will require a dedicated server farm to run for years!! Imagine the cost!

            Toss it in AWS, still be hugely expensive, but through thousands of servers at it for a few hours/day/months/years šŸ˜›

              That would be WAY more expensive.

                it should also be WAY more faster. šŸ˜›

                  How? Logically it would be way slower.

                    eh? throwing massively parallel computing at it? Maybe AWS was the wrong tech - I mean whatever term is needed to mean massively parallel processing.

                      That would be local hardware with big GPU cards.

                        Did you end up trying out some decryption software?

                          I did what I could, got some recovered, but not all. Left detailed notes in the ticket while I’m at spiceworld, they (other techs) have a little under a week to get the rest recovered while I’m gone.

                              How did you recover what you managed to get?
