Hi,

I had to do a full reinstall of XP Home. There are several users all with
their own documents etc.
I need to get at the old "my documents" folders to copy the users data
across but on one users the access is denigned (guess he made his files
secure). I have no problem getting him to supply his old password but dont
know how to get his old files for him.

There are lots of personal stuff music/pics/art work/study etc that he would
hate to lose!

Any assistance would be greate.
Cheers,
O
