I'm trying to copy across settings from my old pc (XP Home Edition) to my new Vista one, using Easy Transfer. I ahve tried twice so far, and each time I reach the end of the process I get a message telling me that I have transferred protected content and need to input the password from my user account on the old machine. when I do as asked, I am told the password is incorrect, but I know it is not. The only option I have to continue is to press cancel, after which I find I have no access to any folders or files in My Documents. Strangely my wife and daughter have no such access problem with their document folders.
I also find that program settings have not been transferred (Or at least do not seem to be acknowledged by the various programs).
I need to get this done desparately, as I am self employed, working from home and just don't have teh time to be spending on all this.
Thanks for reading, and hopefully being able to help.
