I lost my MBRecord plus some and reinstalled XP to a new drive, now am
recovering data from the damaged drive. I cannot open folders set as
"Private" Under Folder properties --> Sharing on the old drive.. Since the
old windows installation on that drive is lost, I don't know how to reset
permissions for these folders. Can anyone help???
If you hadn't encrypted the data files (which could not have been done with WinXP Home), you may be facing nothing more than a simple permissions issue. Have you tried taking ownership of the old folders?
