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. -- Roger Abell Microsoft MVP (Windows Server System: Security) MCSE (W2k3,W2k,Nt4) MCDBA "Dmitriy Kopnichev" wrote in message ...
