First what is luResult.txt, is that something on your PC is this a file within the folder you need to get? Well I would say the syntax was wrong, but this error message “the system cannot find the file specified” says what it is. my backup – The “—“ is that part of the file name? subinacl /object_type : /file \\AMIE\* /setowner=AMIE\administrator did you need to include the /object_type syntax in the command, did you try it that way? Or did you just try subinacl /file c:\my backup -- 06-02-22 0106am\documents and settings\owner\luResult.txt /setowner=owner Without the /object_type: Also did you include the /setowner=AMIE\owner I think what may be the problem is that you tried to take ownership of the file, hence using the /file switch in the command. So try the subdirectory syntax So you will have to go back to your main folder of backup, unless the folder you are trying to get has other folders within it. So lets try this, can you access any folders withn the C:\MyBackup directory? Okay the C:\MyBackup might be the main folder with many other folders called subdirectories within that folder. So you need to take control of the subdirectories within C:\MyBackup. SO try the command subinacl / subdirectories c:\my backup (if that is the complete name of this folder if not then put the whole path) /setowner=owner Let us know if this worked ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.

Okay I am learning this to as I have not used this command before but try this parameter subinacl /object_type : /file \\AMIE\* /setowner=AMIE\administrator Now I am not sure either before the : after object type you need to specify the file name but it is most likely after the /file you need to put the complete path to this folder. And for setowner you need to put your name of the Administrator you have ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.

Okay when you download the file, you have to run the file at the command line, so try this go to start run type in cmd then execute the program, do you know how to run commands at the command line?

You could but you would need a third party program to do so, if you do the partitioning (Splitting) that windows has you need to format your hard drive to do so. ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.

I think what happens is that when you formatted something got lost in the format, either in the way the folder was created or who it was saved by. I am going to try to find some other information for you so that we can try to see if we can get your data back. ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.

Try the General tab and look for advanced at the bottom of the window, do you see that?

Okay I don’t know if this will help or not, but try it, go back to the properties of that folder, then look for the security tab, are all the privileges set to allow? And how are you browsing to that file what method are you using to get to the file, where are you clicking and what are you clicking? And if you go to your folder with the pictures in them, go to attributes then go to advanced, make sure encrypt contents to secure data is not selected. If that does not work, see if you can get to a command line, try this go to start-run then type in cmd if you see a black screen great, let me know if you can see a black screen. Go ahead and then type in exit to close the window. ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.

Hmm okay, what are the choices you have when you login? Do you have a user account called owner, if so is that yours? Before you formatted, were the user accounts the same as they are now?

That file name and error message you gave us, seems like that the owner or the administrator of whoever installed or copied those files to the hard drive was deleted when you did the format. So infact the files hopefully, so we just need to get to them. Okay try these http://www.cddataguys.com/data-recovery.html www.highergroundsoftware.com www.recovermyfiles.com www.uneraser.com/undelete.htm Are you logged on this machine as Administrator? I don’t know if you can do this with a Media Center PC, but can you boot into safe mode? To find out try this, before the media center splash screen and about two seconds after you restart the machine, press F8 until you get to a menu then from that menu go to safe mode and see if you can view the files. ------------------ For every problem, there is a solution.
