As a consequence of a near lightening strike that blew a surge protector,
UPS, two computer power supplies and a motherboard/cpu (the following
brownout also got a freezer compressor), the hard disk was moved to another
working computer as a secondary drive. All of the data files were recovered
with the exception of one sub-folder in the Documents folder.

This folder reports "Access denied". The folder attributes do not indicate
that it is encrypted. However, the user did have a logon password. Setting up
the user on the new computer with the same password did not help. The
original OS was XP Home. The current OS is XP Pro.

Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks
