Hi
thanks for checking this
Recnetly had a main board die on me and replace with a
differnt make-model-manufacturer and upgarded the hard
disk as well. Now, having the old drive as F: I can't
open files that were in my documents as the folder was
marked as PRIVATE.
Can someone please help me these and other files that
were in some other folders also marked as PRIVATE?

Thank you in advance

Steve
