Selected Answer: D
Recovery of data is even possible when the system is damaged, not bootable, or when some encryption keys have been tampered with. The tool recovers EFS-encrypted data that becomes inaccessible because of system administration errors such as removing users and user profiles, misconfiguring data recovery authorities, transferring users between domains, or moving hard disks to a different PC.
