Hi,

I am trying to recover corrupt word document. I have tried several word recovery tools but failed to recover this document.

Reason for Corruption: Reinstallation for Operating System

The corrupt word document was acquired with Get Data Back Software. (http://www.runtime.org)

I would appreciate any help in this matter. I have several other document to recover. I have attached one for example.

Many thanks,

P

It isn't corrupted, it's encrypted.

Having re-installed the OS, you lost the keys for decrypting it.

Unless you can find a backup of the keys somewhere, chances of recovering anything from this seem to be slim to nil.

hi, thanks. how/where do i find "backup of the keys" please ?
