Hi

I've tried to save all My Document folders (folders in folders) over the years since Win 3 or so, (whatever it was) copied many times from various devices to devices (most USB) over the years but the document folders come up empty in W 7 and 8. They were various Word and Open Office docs.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Your awesome for reading this.
Thank you for your response. Didn't work - maybe because I don't use library and always kept first doc folder on separate partition or HD.
