Default O.T. Missing Folder/files

So I need to find my Macrium boot CD to correct the problem on the 780?
I thought I had 7-zip installed but I just checked and I don't. I hate zip files
and all it was was a few pictures of older catalogs. It would of been much
simplier to just send them as jpegs.
I checked again and I'm showing FF as 88 (64 bit)
So you want me to look in the external HD and the Mrimgs on it? and to show
you what I have and then we select which one and restore the present HD from
that so it's all clean again and then we create the copies?

Is that correct?

The "encryption problem", appears to be a case of the machine
having acquired "certificates" related to the Apple crypto.
To correct the problem, most likely involves checking
for the certificates and removing them. Then the machine
will stop pestering to be doing "backups of the encryption keys".

You should be able to execute some of the recipes here.

1) The first step, is a safety procedure. The command is supposed
to scan something and located all encrypted files. In your case,
by not using encryption, the "Encrypted-Files.txt" should be an
empty file with no contents.

Command Prompt(Admin)

cipher /u /h %UserProfile%\Desktop\Encrypted-Files.txt

2) "please navigate to:

1. Type certmgr.msc into search box, press Enter. === Start : Run would do...

2. In the certification management window, expand Personal -Certificates-
There should have entry with "EFS intended Purpose", delete that certificate.

3. Same steps for Trusted People -Certificates -
entry with "EFS intended purposes". Delete that certificate.

After that, reboot the computer to check the result.

Things with EFS should not matter, as long as the Step (1)
shows no files are encrypted.

If you want a copy of 7ZIP, select the 64-bit version here
to match your OS.

https://www.7-zip.org/

Download .exe 64-bit x64 1.4 MB

What 7ZIP does, is add some right-click context menu
entries, such as Open Archive, so you can look inside
ZIP files you receive. Clicking an item or a folder and
selecting Extract, you can deposit the extracted thing
in a location you select from a save dialog box.

To go back-a-level in 7ZIP, use the backspace key. Most
of the rest of it involves clicking.

The graphical interface on 7ZIP is an acquired taste.
Some people hate it for some reason. I don't have a
problem with it. I use that tool all the time for
forensic reasons (looking inside stuff, for hints).

HTH,
Paul
