    hello all
    i have just reformatted and reinstalled windows XP pro and during the process was given the option to lock my files so others can't see them, i don't normally do this and don't know why i did, could someone please show me how to reverse this without having to do another new install of windows
    many thanks

    Lol dude I've done the exact same thing before ... I can't remember exactly how I did it but Unlocker 1.8 would be a start if that doesn't work give this a go ... Advanced EFS Data Recovery

    Good Luck :major
