i am unable to open some of my important documents which were previously kept in a folder and were locked using folder security personal when i was using windows vista ..
but now i formatted the hard disk and installed windows 7 and now i cannot find those folder on the specific drives ..
though folder security personal is not installed in my computer now ..
what can be done now ??
did u format entire harddisk..? or the windows drive only..?(hope u have kept the data in other drive).
if uave not formated the drive where u kept data. try installing the software and open it with the same settings and password.
if u formated the entire drive better use some recovery software..
no no .. it was in other drive and i only installed the OS the other partition were untouched
Try these software,they are really good :
EASEUS Data Recovery
RecoverMyFiles
I have a license for RecoveryMyFiles,if you need I shall transfer it in your name. You may PM me for details.
Then try installing the software and open it with the same settings and password.
may be u r folder is encrypted with that password!.
if this doesnt work try with those softwares as suggested by "The Conqueror"
but don't copy any other data in that drive until u retrieve u r data (becoz the sectors may be overwritten and becomes difficult to recover).
