Can’t find files because they are encrypted with encrypting file system or on a network Or a drive that doesn’t use the ntfs file system. How do I get these files back??

Sorry, but you're being really VAGUE with all your "or's"  It's like you're fishing for answers trying to get at some encrypted files.

 

The bottom line is -- you don't!  IF you encrypted these, you know HOW you did it -- and you know where they are, and HOW to decrypt them.

 

If you did not -- then you are out of luck -- as we will not assist you in gaining access to "protected data".
