537746 2007-04-03 05:00:00 I've just tried in MSWord, under "Tool", "Option" to change the "File Location" for the documents to be saved into but the same error message comes up: "Access denied." Hmmm stjpc (12080)
537747 2007-04-03 05:00:00 The list doesn't show "Security." What's next

Did u read this?? Its under properties on the right mouse. Sorry

Right mouse on the folder / security tab. (You'll have to show all files, to see it).

If u dont see the security tab, you'll have to turn simple file sharing off - untick it (run my computer, tools / folder options / view. Down the bottom).

Then click on the advanced button. Then add, then in the bottom window, type the name (that you typed in when u installed XP), thats in XP (The name that appears at the top when u click on start).

And click on check names. If its right what u typed in, it'll bring up that name.

Then click on OK, OK, OK. Then see if u can get into it.

537748 2007-04-03 05:05:00 stjpc, you better start sucking up now mate, you have in actual fact RESTORED the folder to what was in the backup, if the backup didnt contain your wifes folder with files, you maybe in for a rough ride. SolMiester (139)
537749 2007-04-03 05:09:00 I've done the "My Computer", "View" and untick the "Use simple file sharing" and clicked OK. But I didn't see any advance button after that. stjpc (12080)
537750 2007-04-03 05:14:00 Or like what Solmiester said u may have overwritten the folder. So there's nothing there anywhere.

Did u click on properties/security then the advanced button?

537751 2007-04-03 05:22:00 Yes after clicked on the Advance button it shows up:

Permission, Auditing, Owner, Effective Permissions.

Which of those headings do I click on?
