Access denied! Really need help!

Hi all! I'm in trouble here! So I have an old Win. XP hard drive that won't start not, but I can see how never all files and folders on the disc of Windows 7! Now evertime I try to listen to my music or looking at old photos of me and friends I get the error message access denied!.  I took controlling everything on the side of win 7 but I can't make the drive to start xp. Is it possible to have access to all the pictures and music by my computer root system or something?

You cannot start XP to this old hard drive. When you say that you have "taken control of any side win 7 [translation]" do you mean that you took possession of the XP disc? If this is not the case, what I would do.

Check the permissions of the file or folder the file is saved in and appropriated:
      
1. right click on the file or folder and then click Properties.
2. click on the Security tab.
3. under group or user names, click your name to see the permissions you have.

To take ownership of a folder:

1 right click on the folder you want to take control and then click Properties.
2. click on the Security tab, click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.
3. click on modify. Need administrator permission if you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
4. click on the name of the person you want to give to the property.
5. If you want this person to be the owner of the files and subfolders in this folder, select the Replace owner of subcontainers and objects to check.
6. click on OK

If this does not work for you, then I'd probably make quick/Sales by starting the computer with a distro Linux Live (either from CD or USB, key USB) and copy the data files XP on an external hard drive. Linux will not honor Windows permissions. If you want to keep these data on the old disk, I format the drive from Windows 7 and then copy data to it. If you do not plan the maintenance of the old drive, you would simply copy the data into the appropriate folders in your Windows 7 user directory (music, Documents, etc.).

  • File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file

    Hello.  When I try to delete a file on an external hard drive on a network, I get this error message:

    "File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file."
    I tried to take possession of the file, but there is no security or any other option to do.  Here's what I see when I click on properties:
    In general, details, previous Versions
    Under "Details", the owner is listed as "Everyone".  At the bottom of the box, there is a link "remove properties and personal information."  If I click on that I have two options: 'Create a copy with all of the properties deleted' or "Remove the following properties from the file."  If I select "owner" and click ok, nothing happens - the owner is always listed as "Everyone" and I can't delete it.
    I am running windows 8.
    I am the administrator.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Doug

    Step 1: Open the file properties

    Step 2: Open the security option, and then click on allow list of user options and select your user name.

    Step 3: Select allow and any other option. Then, closed.

    Step 4: then open the file again. Now you can remove it.

    Hope that it will workzzzz...

  • PLZ I REALLY NEED HELP!

    Please someone help me, when I go to 192.168.2.1, this appears and I can't connect to the internet.

    Type of connection: State of PPPoE connection: Internet connection IP address: 0.0.0.0 subnet mask: 0.0.0.0 default gateway: 0.0.0.0 DNS1: DNS2: DNS3: MTU: 1492

    Can someone help me please, I really need help, parents are really crazy, and they think it's my fault.

    Is this a good solution? I went to 192.168.0.1 and changed a bridged network connection. Then I connected back the WRT150N router on my computer and the modem and everything works fine now, even some of my fixation with my ISP disconnection problems! The only problem is, my internet is slow, it used to be 1500 Mbps download speed and now it's down around 800-900.

    I mainly use a bridged network share. Would it not slow? And this correction will be permanent?

  • I have the windows product key sticker, but some of them are deleted. I really need help to send a photo to show him what it's like.

    Original title: product key

    Hello

    I have the windows product key sticker, but some of them are deleted. I really need help if I can send a photo to show him what it's like. I formatted my laptop and he asks the authentic copy. I really need help coz 2 days left to activate.

    Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    You can extend the activation period of 30 days by running slmgr /rearm since the Admin command prompt.

    Then take a picture of your COA sticker with your phone, blow as large as possible to try to detect all the characters input for Activation.  You can also use a magnifying glass.

    If you can not use the key to product then you will need to either the order of the restoration of the factory of the manufacturer of your PC media, or if you have a C:\windows.old folder you can try to reinstall the factory to SLP activation file.  However we do not support this so you will need to search on your own.

  • Hello. Really need help.

    I'm doing a game right now. When you finished with success the current level, it should unlock the next level.  I've been Googling since this morning and tried to use SharedObject, but it does not solve my problem. I really need help please! Can someone please give me an idea on how I can do this? >. < Thank you.

    It depends on how you load your levels.

    If you attach an event listener to Buttonbs who are in charge of your level, you may

    Add sth. as

    function init (): void {}

    var maxLevels:int = int (showCookie ());

    var totalLevels:int = 4

    say it returns '2 '.

    for (var i: int = 1; i<>

    If (i<>

    getChildByname("level"+i).visible = true;

    }

    else {}

    getChildByname("level"+i).visible = false;

    }

    }

    }

    and in your MouseEvent.CLICK, startLevel you add all the buttons

    you write sth. as

    function startLevel(e:MouseEvent):void {}

    var levelLoader:Loader = new Loader();

    levelLoader.load (new URLRequest ("level" + e.currentTarget.name.substr (5.1) + ".swf");)

    }

Thanks in advance!

    D3,

    You said,

    "bluetooth device has not been successfully installed.

    You said,

    ""photo from my phone it it was settled, but it says ' unable to connect ' "." "

    I'm a little confused by what you say, but I do not understand 'unable to connect '.

    • It's time to go back to information I sent you and go through the installation program.
    • You can also use the HP connection manager to help you get the job done.

    Here is the Connection Manager software.  Download and install it.  Your computer already has the software, it's going to tell if the package will install...

    Once the software is installed...

    And you want to use the HP Connection Manager software.

    • Make sure that your wireless network is enabled,
    • Then look in your taskbar for your Connection Manager icon and
    • Double-click to start

    If you do not see the icon in the taskbar, you can do the following:

    Start > search / type "HP connect" >

    Click on 'Hp connection manager' when you see it in the start list

    This is a HP Connection Manager Help file.

    The document explains how to use the software to connect your Bluetooth devices (and wireless):
