Versions:
DiskInternals EFS Recovery 5.18.1 is a specialized data-recovery utility designed to decrypt and restore EFS-encrypted files and folders from NTFS volumes and RAID arrays that are healthy, formatted, corrupted, or have been moved to another computer. The program automatically scans the selected disk or partition, locates Encrypted File System data created by any Windows edition from Windows 2000 through Windows 11 and Server 2008 R1/R2, and then prompts for the original user-account password to perform on-the-fly decryption. Typical use cases include retrieving encrypted corporate documents after a hard-drive crash, accessing protected user folders transferred to a new workstation, recovering inadvertently deleted encrypted files, or reading BitLocker-protected content from damaged volumes. Because EFS metadata is preserved even when partitions are reformatted or repartitioned, the software can rebuild the encryption chain and deliver readable output without requiring the original operating system installation. The single-version release 5.18.1 integrates a wizard-driven interface that guides administrators through disk selection, password entry, and export destination, supporting batch recovery of entire folder trees while maintaining original NTFS permissions and timestamps. DiskInternals EFS Recovery is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always providing the latest build and enabling silent, batch installation alongside multiple applications.
