ACCESS DENIED! |
| message from =?Utf-8?B?QXVyYQ==?= on 10 Jun 2004 |
I have installed a new hard drive C: I kept my old hard drive and it is D: On C: there is a fresh new OS install. All is smooth and solid. On D: there is precious data i wish to copy to C: However, when I attempt to access My Documents within my user profile on D: a dialogue box appears: Access is denied. I ponder. There is no password setting for my old profile on D: Administrator, User Default, All Users and the sort are accessible, except for the user profile header that was mine. There are gigabytes worth of data under that folder that I can not afford to lose. Please help me. I suspect that there is an issue with the ntuser.dat file and there is a "read only" attribute that I noticed. The OS install on D: is non-functional but should not have any bearing on this issue, for the raw files I need are still on the drive.

Hi Aura,
HOW TO: Take Ownership of a File or Folder in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;308421
For this to work, you need to boot in safe mode in XP Home (F8),
in XP Professional you need to disable simple file sharing in Windows
Explorer > Tools > Folder Options.
Hope this helps
