Decrypt recovered files

Active@ UNDELETE is an advanced data recovery tool designed to recover data lost or deleted data, or even information from formatted hard disks.

During the recovery of encrypted files to any destination that doesn’t support encryption, Active@ UNDELETE creates temporary (*.EFS) files. These files can be decrypted later at any time by using the File Decryption Tool.

1. Open the Decrypt Files dialog

  • Use the command tools and select Decrypt Files from the main menu.
  • From the Tools tab in the command bar, choose the Decrypt Files command.

2. Add files to decrypt

Add temporary recovered encrypted files (*.efs) or open the Decrypted Files log (*.txt) created during recovery by using the Add button.

Delete temporary files

All temporary recovered encrypted source files will be deleted after decryption.

Browse Destination

The folder where files will be decrypted will be opened by the default OS files browser.

Create Detailed Log

The log files will contain more detailed information about the forthcoming process.

Use Disk Lock

The source disk will be locked during the file recovery process. The disk will be unlocked as soon as the process is completed.

Ignore Disk Lock Errors

With this option on, the file recovery process will continue even if locking of the source device fails.

Ignore Write Errors

No error messages will appear and all write errors will be ignored during the recovery process.

Ignore Read Errors

No error messages will appear and all read errors will be ignored during the recovery process.

Generate unique file name

If a file with the same name exists in the destination folder, then a file with a unique name will be generated to avoid overwriting.

Ask before overwrite

If a file with a certain name already exists in the destination folder, the application will ask the user for a specific action to take.

Overwrite without prompt

All files will be overwritten even if they already exist in the destination folder.

Skip existing files

If a file with the same name already exists in the destination folder, recovery of that file will be skipped.

3. Decrypt selected files

Set other options if necessary and then click the Decrypt button to complete the task. When process completes decrypted files will appear in destination folder.
