PROBLEM TO COPY DATA

by yellowmax_sonu . Updated 18 years ago

Remove admin password from User “My Documents” folder
I replaced the hard drive on my laptop before removing the admin password, installed new hard drive and put old hard drive in external case. Installed Windows XP and everything is great….

Except, I cannot access the document folder on the old hard drive (now in external case)to copy files over. Can access hard drive, just not the specific “My Documents” file under my old user name as access is denied due to original password

Any suggestions, short of replacing old hard drive which I can’t since I deleted most of original windows xp installlation before discovering I couldn’t access the folder with all my documents.
