ok, ok . . . this is a topic of 2006 . . . PowerQuest Configuration Center Toolkit 2.0 user guide: sysdoc.doors.ch/POWERQUEST/PQConfig_manual.pdf "A runtime configuration file (RTC) is supplied for each version of PQIExtract. The RTC file has the same name as the corresponding executable. Any PQIExtract command or group of commands can be added to the RTC file. A common command to embed in the RTC file is the PQI file password. This hides the password from customers and protects the PQI file from restoration, except by those with access to the proper RTC file." "Command parameters are specified by placing a space or an equal sign, “=”, after the command, followed by a parameter value. PWD <password> provides PQI password. If a partition within the PQI is encrypted, you can use this command to provide the password. You must specify this command before you specify the name of the PQI file (using the PQI command)." JC

the very best choice: GetDataBack for NTFS brings back EVERYTHING, that hasn't been overwritten meanwhile... even files from installations you can't remember anymore I swear!
