This means that you have full control and it is inherited from
some higher directory.
Are you sure that there is no Deny for some group, and if
there is make sure your account is not a member of the group.
Deny overrides a Grant.

When you look at the file's properties Security dialog
is anything checked for any group in the Deny column ?
You must highlight each group listed one at a time and
then look at what is Granted/Denied.
An account that is only in Administrators group is
actually also in other things to which there can be
NTFS Grants/Denies, like Authenticated Users,
Network, Interactive, Everyone. . . .
Not having EFS authorization appears as if it is a
NTFS permissions denial. You should use the cipher
commandline utility to examine the thumbprint info of
the file to see what accounts are allowed to decrypt it.
