can't get access to owners files after a nondestructive system recovery

L

Larry

I performed a non destructive system recovery and now I
cannot access the owner's files. I was given a new
owner's file labelled Owner.YOUR-W92P4BHLZG. I still
have the original file. My original owner account was
administrated and password protected. Currently I cannot
access the original folder to obtain my documents. Help.

Hi Larry,

Take Ownership of that folder. Login as Administrator from Safe mode (XP
Home)
