Hello Prieto,
You have to use the account that have encrypted the file's or the administrator account from that machine on that you encrypt the file's, if this account has the right to decrypt. Not possible on another machine with another account, even admin or user. For another machine you have to export and import the certificate from the original machine/user to the new machine.
Best regards

I have Win 2000 Pro SP 4.
I encrypted several files and now I can't "un-encrypt" them. I can't
access them.
I tried doing the normal procedure:
Right click, properties, in the general tab click advance and
un-check
"Encrypt
contents for secure data "
After doing this and click apply or OK, the computer gives me this
error message;
Dialog box says : "Error applying attributes. File nameXYZ
Access Denied"
I guess I created these file in another account in my own computer but
both the old account and the new account have administrator
privileges. I also change the ownership from and old account to the
new account and still can get access. Also logged in as the old
administrator and that didn't work either.
I don't remember if when I did the encryption I had to put a password
but when a try different things doesn't ask me for a password either.
