Hello All,<br />
we had a 5-yr old W2003 STD file &amp;&nbsp;print server that crashed on Thursday; after not being able to boot up I moved the files to a different server. The problem is that my 35+ users cannot access some or their files, when trying to open them the error: &quot;The set of folders could not be opened. File Access Denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file: &quot;Share\Filename&quot;.<br />
I am a member of the administrators group and cannot access the files.<br />
<br />
Help please!
