Cant Access My Documents Folder In Slave Drive Cause U Are Not Authorized

I cant boot from HD. Tried all the procedures in Recovery console. the user was password protected. i have taken this HD and made it slave to another PC. created a same userid n password on other PC. want to copy my documents folder (the entire userid folder under documents n settings) to the other PC main Drive so i can reformat the bad HD.

TY for the response, yes i am loggin in as administrator. i figured once i have the bad HD on the other PC as secondary slave that if i create the same administrator userid name with same password i would be able to access those secure folders thru windows explorer but im guessing is OS related as well

After aplying the steps to the folder I am now having access to folder...im still facing a smaller isssue not having access to specific file within some folders..(i have also applied the folder takeover permission folder by folder) ..some of the files within the folder (as displayed in windows explorer) are colored blue n others greeen...(something to do with NTFS encryption n compres) i applied the steps of ur mentioned note to take over specific FILE n this did not work

please keep in mind im copying files from slave to master.. Slave came from another PC also with XP pro n files under userid n pssword.

im able to copy/move these files within the slave HD but cant copy to master HD

TY again
