I have a hard drive I need to backup. In the hard drive is of course things like Documents and Settings
which is set to not allow other people to see inside someone's personal folders.
I am an administrator though, and I can not figure out how to mark these files so that I am permitted to access them and copy them. When I double click on My Documents
then it pops up saying You must have permission to access this
and gives me an option like OK or Cancel. I click OK
and then it says you do not have permission to access these files
.
I'm an administrator on the system, so I don't understand why Windows Vista is locking me out.
How can I setup Windows Vista so that it will let me copy every file, even ones I don't have permission to?
