What is the best way to copy data protected by a password. Windows won't start in normal or safemode. If I load the hard drive as a slave in another machine, the data is hidden.

You will need to take ownership of folders/files when drive is connected to another PC if user folders were protected. Instructions are in link below.

Thank you. It would have worked, but the data was corrupted.
