A few months ago I encrypted a couple of Word documents but now I can't remember what I named them or where they are. How do I find them again? I'm using Vista Ultimate 64.
find a document when you don't know it's name

Hello Skootch,
Press the WINKEY+F keys to bring up the search window. At the top/right,
click Advanced Search.
In the Location drop down menu, select a drive or click the Choose Locations
and select where you want to perform the search. In the Name box, type
*.doc (or *.docx) and click the Search Button.
Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks a lot, I tried it but still haven't found the documents. Did the search method you suggested also search sub-folders? I think the documents might in a folder inside of another folder in the My Documents folder...
