I have one folder which contains many files but but whenever I try to open
it, I get the message "Access Denied". The properties show that the folder
has 0 bytes while I am sure that it has many files and when I ran the
defgarmenter, it of course moved some of the files held in this folder. I was
told to take ownership of the folder but there is no such tab on the
properties which can help me do so. I am administrator using XP Pro. I am
much confused as there was some important stuff in that folder.
Thanks in advance...

When you tried to take ownership of the folder were you in Safe Mode?

Good luck with this.
