Hello, I had Win XP pro on my laptop with a normal password (i remember it). My laptop broke and so I bought an enclosure for my hard drive so I can retrieve my files. When I connected the enclosure to another computer and click on "My Documents" it says "Access denied" How do I get around that??? You need to take ownership of the files. Take a look here for the procedu How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;308421 Note: If you are running Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, you must start the computer in safe mode, and then log on with an account that has Administrative rights to have access to the Security tab. To start in Safe Mode, reboot your computer and start tapping the F8 key as soon as you see anything displayed on the screen. Keep hitting F8 until the Advanced Startup Options menu appears. Use the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard to select Safe Mode. Hit Enter. Good luck Nepatsfan |
