Hello. So, I have a server running Windows Home Server 2011. I store my product key database on it, and i have it encrypted with Encrypting File System. However, that feature is only on Pro editions of Windows, and mine is running Home Premium. Also, the simple fact that the file wasn't encrypted by the comouter trying to decrypt it, i can't access it. So, how would I gain remote read/write access to EFS files, and is there a way to gain any access (even read-only) to encrypted files on non-supported editions?
