    there is a tool called "efsinfo" in Win2k Resource kit. It does just that,
    ie displays the encryption staus for the files in the curent folder.
    
    Best regards,

    Subiect: Identifying Win2K/XP Encrypted Files
    
    
    Does anyone know a slick way to find encrypted files on a running Win2K/XP
    machine?  If I am tasked with seizing one, and find it on and logged in, it
    would be nice to be able to identify files encrypted with Windows before I
    pull the plug.  It seems to me the only way to do it is to view the
    attributes in Windows Explorer - but short of clicking down through the
    whole tree, I don't see how to find encrypted files that are in
    non-encrypted folders or a level or two down...
    
    Anyone with ideas on this?
