I will try to explain things what I did and problem I am Facing in brief..



1. I encrypted a folder named photos as you can see in the video by going to
Properties(by right click)>General Tab>Advanced>Encrypt contents to secure data.

2. Then it asked me to backup keys and certificate.
I backed them up but lost them after few days.
a. Now the text is in green of the files and folders

3. I re-installed windows 7 ultimate after formatting the C: drive

4. After re-installing windows I am not able to view these files.

5. Even not able to de-crypt them..



Video is given below to understand the problem better:-
