I recently changed jobs and returned the laptop with the certificate on it. I now have files on an external hard drive that I cannot gain access to. To further compound matters, I switched over to the enemy (Apple). I still have access to my wife's windows 10 machine so I can do something there if needed. Is there any way I can get access to these files back? I cannot remember if I encrypted them on Windows 10 or after I switched to Windows 11. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
