plz help mw im transfgering data frm my old hdd but the acess is denied ...i had not put any passwords to the old hdd
unlocking a folder
would like to tell a little about the OS you are using ?
I dnt think it is possible...
Actually celldweller he must be having WinXP or later OS in older HDD. The data he is talking about could be encrypted or he must be using password enabled account thus all the items under My Documents etc. are encrypted. I do not think it is possible to access them...
I was in such situation once. All I did was, boot the system with older HDD and copied all the data to normal folder location e.g. C:\OldData. Switched Primary/Secondary HDD and re-booted system normally with OS in new HDD. I was able to access data in OldData folder.

probably u r right but Ubuntu or any other livecd can work in this case, i doubt that also !
yeah...never thought on that angle....it will definitely work as the protection is Windows feature...
but cudn't say if the files are encrypted at NTFS level...but we shud try this...gotta be a new experience..

Ubuntu live CD is worth a try. If it works, then there is nothing better than that !
