Windows EFS - Recovery
Windows Server 2003 hard disk has become corrupt and unbootable. Also attached was a secondary hard drive for data.
I have slaved the secondary hard drive over to a Windows 2000 workstation utilizing NTFS, as well. I can copy almost all of the files locally, except for my encrypted files...makes sense, because I don't have my EFS certificate.
Any chance I can slave over the primary 2003 drive to my 2000 machine and recover a certificate? I don't believe a cert was ever 'exported', but I would hope there is a way to access this privy information to create one. If so, where do I locate and how do I restore?
Thanks!
