Help! I tried your Take Ownership shortcut, but now the file on which I used it has vanished.
I was trying to use the hard drive from my old computer as an external, but had trouble accessing the Programs and Settings folder. When I tried to open it, I was told I didn't have access. Right clicking and changing the access in the Security tab under Properties didn't help. So I used the Take Ownership shortcut on that folder. It did its thing on the DOS screen. Then when I tried to double-click and open the Documents and Settings folder, it froze up and I got a Not Responding message. I closed the program and restarted the computer. When I went back to the external hard drive, the Documents and Settings folder had disappeared. What happened? How do I get it back?
