I moved files from one computer to another using PC Relocator. I told it to
put the files in its own User name in XP. After the transfer of the files,
XP brings up the User "default", but won't let me into it without a
password. The computer I transferred from and the computer I transferred to
do not have passwords, so what do I do to get into that User account to get
to the transferred files?

thank you!

Hi,

Create a new account on the "to" machine, then take ownership of the files.
