I have taken a hard drive from a crash WinXP Pro computer and put it into my
computer to retrieve the data. Hard drive is reading fine. The User, Shelley,
had a User Password on her computer. I now cannot access that folder to
retrieve the data. How can I free up this data so it can be transferred to
the new computer? Please help.
