Default Need help recovering a deleted file

I deleted several documents on a removable ISB drive. Later I found I needed
these files and used a file recovery program to find the files. I had not
used the USB drive for anything else so the deleted files were found easily.
I was able to save them as MS Word documents, but when I open them they are
just jumbled characters. I've tried all the Word choices for decoding the
file and nothing works.
When I originally made these documents they were password protected. Could
that be why I can't read them now? Any suggestions on what I should do?
