Hey all... I'm trying to salvage some documents from the directory c:/documents and settings/nick/desktop/ through the recovery console, booted from the installation cd. ('nick' is my profile name) I quickly ran into the wall of not being able to copy files within "documents and settings," not having access by default.
I know one way around this would be unlock the "set AllowAllPaths = TRUE" command, which would allow me to eliminate the access restrictions within the hdd, however the only way i've ever done this is through the registry... as described in this document: http://www.informationweek.com/LP/s...UNN2JVN?articleID=187000225&pgno=2&queryText=
Here my problem comes full circle. I wouldn't be in the recovery console in the first place if I could log into windows normally. So is there a way to edit the registry, so i can use the set command to copy the files, within the recovery console?
