Documents Private

J

Jamie Allison

I have a problem with windows xp. I had it installe don my machine and made
my documents private which where actually stored on another hard drive


I have now had to re-install windows and forgot to un select so my documents
where no longer privet. So i now have a frsh install of windows xp with my
documents folder on a seperate hard drive but privalages are assigned to an
accoutn that is no longer avalable due to me doing the fresh install.

I there any way i can access there files in admin account?

Thanks in advance.

You need to take ownership of the files. You can see how to do this by
searching the help centre for "take ownership".
