Hello all, what i need help with is im currently running a drive on a IDE/SATA adapter to recover the data. Only problem is one section of the users folder i have to set the permissions for myself to get into each folder.
Now i can get into the folders but i cant remove any of the data from the folder due to lack of permissions. Im using Win 7 but the drive has XP on it and i just need to get this last bit of data but it wont allow me to do so with the permissions around!
 
Read First Topic entitled Taking Ownership of files in Vista/Win7. Should solve your issue.
 
Best bet is to get a Linux LiveCD like Ubuntu. Use that to access the XP Drive and get the files you want and copy them over to the Win7 drive. It will save you a lot more hassle than the continuation of trying to mess with permissions.
