I have several files on my computer that i cant get
access too. I get an error that says access is denied or
the file name is invalid. I copied the files from one
drive to another after windows crashed. after this only
about a third of the files i was able to open. If anyone
has had this problem or knows a fix for it. I also had
to reinstall windows so its not the same copy as what the
files were saved on
