Unable to access encrypted folders - error 0x80071771?
Last week I upgraded to a larger SSD; I didn't make a clone of my old drive, just did a clean install. Everything else on my PC stayed the same—same hardware, same Windows key and Microsoft account linked to it, etc. All my files were encrypted and kept on an internal HDD, which remained secure. I unencrypted everything on the HDD before installing the new SSD.
I carefully checked most folders and found a few still encrypted, with no clear reason or method. The remaining 98% looked fine. I encountered error 0x80071771. I have no way to decrypt them, and the old SSD was wiped because everything seemed accessible and working properly, so I cleaned it up. Is there anything I can do to recover these files?
