Problem with back up.

Postby mhic » Sat Aug 01, 2015 12:20 pm

I've copied some files on to my hard disc from windows back up but I can't open them, I'm getting the message don't have permission contact owner or admin yet I am logged in as administrator. How do I get round this please.

Thanks for the advice but nothing seemed to work, finally I tried copying the entire file to second
a second installed hard drive and it worked. So I can now listen to all my favourite music again.
