Or another thing to try ,might be to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/use-241643" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about USE">USE</a> system restore to go back to just before you installed SP2 for MS office .....and see if that allows you to open those files .<br/><br/>dl65 I will try and see if its possible I will keep you posted on this issue....thanks for the suggestion... Hi, it was not with the SP 2, the problem was with the private key, it was deleted by mistake which caused all the problem.....now it was restored and the files and folders could be decrypted.....thanks to all the suggestions given to me.....</p></body></html>
