Privite Folders

[Damien]

I had a corrupt Windows install so i reinstalled XP Pro. I had renamed the
old Documents and Settings folder before I reinstalled. Now when i try and
access the files in the renamed Documents and Settings folder I get access
denied.

Is there a way to get back into the old folder?

Thanks

Turn off Use Simple Sharing under Tools | Options | View tab

Disable "Simple File Sharing" and very you are using NTFS file system:
