I recently had to reinstall my windows XP pro because it developed some error whereby i could n ot laod windows in safemode, normal nor could i use my XP disc to do a repair (i got same error
i did a new install, keeping all my old files (i NEED to keep them
its now loaded and im in the process of loading all the drivers i need...
but it has not included any of my old profiles..
the one i need had a password, and i cannot acces the folder, move it or rename it in any way..
i have checked the registry and cannot find a way to make windows include the profile in its list of users.
does anyone know how i can force windows to load it like any other profile? or at least "hack in" to the folder if i must.. i would prefer to be able to use my old account to starting a new one.. cos i got everything how i liked it... but one way or another i need to get into it..
i have windows XP pro unpatched and have a far above average skill with computers and PC repair... but i have never needed to fix such a problem nor heard of such a problem.. as i have always been able to access old accounts like that... but now i just get "access is denied" and various similar remarks depending on how i try to access it..
any help would be greatly appreciated..
