I added myself and my wife to the computer as administrators. The problem is
that the system removed the default administrator and its settings. My wife
had all of her work on there, because she was using it for some time before I
did it. Well, I tried moving documents and pictures from administrator to
her user directory from windows explorer, but it didn't work. I did a system
restore and it still doesn't work. To make matters worse I tried moving all
of the documents and pictures back to the administrator directory and now,
when we try to access the files we get "access denied"....arrrrrrgh! Please
help, Greg

The folders for a users profile usually does not have permissions for the
administrators group, However you can logon to the computer as an
administrator and take ownership of any folder that will give you the
ability to change permissions on the folder to allow yourself access. The
article in the link below explains how to take ownership of files and
folders and be sure to select the option "replace owner on subcontainers and
objects". --- Steve
