Access denied when you access files from another computer created virtual hard disk

Last week I decided to try to save my laptop XP using internal system Disk2VHD and saved the files on my new computer (64-bit) Windows 7 Pro.

Two days ago I tried to boot up the laptop and it failed due to no power. Dead battery and does not work when it is connected. I think that the power connector and the motherboard have parted ways.
Tonight, I tried to mount the virtual drive on Windows 7 system using the disk management to see if I could recover my files.
I can mount the virtual hard drive, but when I navigate to certain directories, as one of the user profile directories, I'm greeted by the error message:
[Window title]
Admin
[Main instruction]
You don't have permission to access this folder.
[Content]
Click on continue to get permanent access to this folder.
[Continue] [Cancel]
The files I need are those of My Documents, but I can't access it.
Is there a way to change the owner of the files or otherwise access? I have several years of financial information I need.

  • permission to access files from another computer running window xp__

    my laptop is running window7 and I try to get the media to my desktop running window xp.

    You have configured by file/printer between two machines share? If this is not the case, this is your next step.

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

    Discovery of plug in the network
    Open the files and printers sharing
    Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
    Plug the password protected sharing

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

    D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

    E. create share as you wish. In Windows 7 I usually share the Desktop of the user and the Public directory. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using the homegroup.

    Group residential slow and other problems with it

    Hello!

    I have 3 Windows 7 PC-s (office #1, #2 desktop and laptop). I created HomeGroup and join all computers, so I can access the files on each of them. But my problem is the following: homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using homegroup, because it is slow and every two seconds of loading film. And also needed a few minutes to open the pictures (more than 10 GB in all folders) to a folder in the other PC. Why is this work so slow? I don't think there is a problem with slow wireless router, because I can replace my old Linksys WRT54GL Linksys E4200, which is able to transfer video HD 3D such as Linksys provide. What should I do to fix this? Should I change all the settings in Windows, perhaps in the router...?
    And why my laptop is not always visible to the other PC to homegroup? He see two others and two other sees, but they are not portable. This happens sometimes. But then I still share with homegroup libraries to my laptop and there still other computers see it and all shared libraries. Where is the problem? I also try to change the HomeGroup services automatically, but this does not solve the problem.
    If I forgot something to write, or you need more information, do not hesitate to ask.
    I'd appreciate any help really.

    Hello

    Manually check manufacturers sites WiFi because pilots offered through
    Updates Windows will most often not be later (MS is far behind certifying)
    drivers and many manufacturers do not quickly submit newer versions or not at all). See
    Manual driver update of the methods below.

    The question could be WiFi in fact however try to device (hardware)
    update the driver first.

    What antivirus/security is used? Some of those who will cause problems with the
    Homegroup. Since it happens more often on a single computer that on there
    a check.

    From this link:

    Homegroup: frequently asked questions (also shows how delete and remove homegroup)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/HomeGroup-frequently-asked-questions

    "Only people who belong to the homegroup can see shared libraries. You can also share libraries or files and individual folders with specific people in your homegroup, rather than share them with everyone. For more information, see libraries with your homegroup sharing and keep files and folders to be shared with a specific residential group. »

    Share files with anyone
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/share-files-with-someone

    ==================

    How to upgrade manually the drivers:

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
    (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as windows
    7 love the updated drivers.

    I hope this helps.

  • File extension is missing when you download files from the web

    I just got a new PC with preinstalled Windows7. From day one, I have the problem that when I download files from the internet while you have no extension, so when I try to run them, told me that they do not have an associated program. I then rename and add the missing extension and all is well. But it's very annoying to have to do every time :(

    I come home from work and now everything works fine - even my webcam which worked yesterday either. Just shows how much it means to close and start fee in time ;)

    Seems that my problem has healed itself, but thanks for the help that was offered to me.

  • Password required when trying to map a network drive or access the files from another computer

    I'm trying to set up a home network with a computer that is used as a file server.  I have computers successfully connected in a unique working group and that you can see all of the computers in my 'network', but whenever I try to access another computer or map a drive, I wonder a user name and password.  How can I remove this requirement or solve this problem?

    Hi Kalomar,

    If your computer is on a workgroup, you have the ability to turn password protection on or off. Disable password protected sharing on the computer that is connected and check if you are always prompted for a password.

    1. open the network and sharing Center by clicking theStart button, clicking Control Panel, click network and Internet, click network and sharing Center.

    ·        Click the arrow next topassword protected sharing, and then click turn off password protected sharing

    2. click onapply.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/sharing-files-with-the-public-folder

    Note: If you change the password on one computer, you will need to change it on the other computer as well, otherwise you will again be asked a password.

    I hope this helps.

  • getBytesLoaded() and getBytesTotal() return anything when you load content from another domain

    I created a movie that load various media using loadMovie(), then in many cases performs actions on the newly loaded MCs once loading is completed. I rely on getBytesLoaded and getBytesTotal to know when to perform these actions.

    This works very well when the content is on the same server as the film, but I also need to load content from another domain and this is where it falls apart. The media actually does very well in the target MCs, but never make the functions that need to be running when the loading is complete. The problem is that getBytesLoaded() and getBytesTotal() both return nothing when the content is loaded from another domain.

    I'm stuck with loadMovie and getBytesLoaded/getBytesTotal as this film must be published for Flash Player 6, but I actually tried to use loadClip() and onLoadInit() and I get the same problem - onLoadInit() never works.

    Another weird thing is that test by displaying a flash preview is not displayed this problem - the content of fines and getBytesLoaded and getBytesTotal loads two values to return as expected. It's only when I publish the film and display in a browser I have this problem.

    Where I'm going wrong?

    Thank you!

    in your external SWF on the other server, type the following in the first picture...

    Code:

    System.security.allowDomain (_parent._url);

    If you load your swf file into a movieclip with instance name mcImage and then do

    Code:

    System.security.allowDomain (mcImage._url);

  • After you import bookmarks from another computer, I have two copies of each other: How can I delete the copy of 'just '?

    I managed to import my favorites from my old to new Macbook. But now, there are two copies of everything, filed one after the other. I tried to delete a game, but only removed those organized in folders. There are still double rooms, a large number of bookmarks. So, when I bookmark new pages on the new computer, he adds at the end of a list of favorites, but not the other and it's list who don't not the files from the old computer. How can I remove a set of bookmarks, but keep the game that it adds to and keep my records?

    I think that in this case you need an addon:

    Hello

    /vmimages is on each ESX host that is created.

    To save on precious space on your San, why don't you install Linux or WIndows Server 2003 R2 and create NFS shares.

    You can store your ISO here and same vmtemplates.

    Is really easy to implement.
