This is my problem. About a year ago this file (C:\Documents and
Settings\User name) was accidentally delted and the files contained were
transferred to my file. Can anyone help me rectivate the file and tansfer the
files back? ANy time I as the adminstrator try to open the file I get this
message (C:\Documents and Settings\User name is not accessible. Access is
denied. I am really hoping I can get some assistance. Thank you.

Click Start / Help, then type permissions and
read the relevant topics of how to grant or refuse access
permissions. This will enable to you seize ownership of
the problem folder and do with it whatever you like.

I was able to get to thefolder options, but the step of use simple file
sharing was not available. Is there something i am missing?

I used Google to type this:

"Simple File Sharing" "Windows XP"

and found this link:

Maybe with all the upgrades to SP2, I am no longer able to do anything with
this specific folder, I can't delete it, move it to the desk top or to the
shared documents folder.

Hi,

Simple File Sharing is not available to "undo" in a WinXP Home system.
Accessing permissions on a Home system means restarting in Safe mode and
logging on as administrator. More details:
