installed win xp home. win proff, afterwards...
« on: January 21, 2004, 01:37:14 PM »
Hello.

Well, I had windows xp home edition allready installed.
I had an user account, password protected, which I ignored when I installed windows xp proffessional.

Now I have windows xp pro, and when I try to open the folder in the "documents and settings" , which before the install of xp pro was password protected I get this message:(Its in greek, so I try to translate)
"The access to 'C:\Documents and Settings\george.' is not possible".

"Access Denied".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The folder size is "0 kilobytes"......but when I tried a small "trick", it was possible to 'open' the folder from a driver wizard in the control panel.........and the size of the folder was suddenly about 4.3 GB in space.

Couldn't copy anything from the folder because it gave the same message

"Access Denied".

I know the password for the 'george' folder but there was zero users after the install of windows xp proffessional, thus no option to enter any password anywhere.

/I would be please for any kind of reply
