Ok, so i have Vista Ultimate, and per "best practices" i created a Standard
user account, and use that for all my computer work. Well, i wanted to use
the Backup option and backup some files on an external hard-drive, and when i
click on that backup wizard, it tells me i need to log in with my ADMIN
account to do it. Apparently you cannot backup when logged into a standard
account. Ok, so i do that. But when im logged in with ADMIN user account, i
cannot seem to access the folders i have available to me on my user account!
I would think the ADMIN can access any and all folders. When i click on photo
gallery or Pictures folder, my pictures aren't in there. BAck in my standard
user account, there are thousands of pictures...but i cannot access them, or
my other documents when logged in as the Admin. So anyhow...i cant back up
from my standard account, and when logged in as admin, there is nothing for
me to back up! Why cant i access my Documents, and Pictures folder when
logged in as Admin?? Please help!!
Thanks
