woolybanana Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I have been trying to open some files stored on an external HDD but it won't let me, saying I need authorization, but they are my own word and open office files. Can anyone pleasze tell me how I get round this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nell Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Can you drag them back onto your C: drive and open from there ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 Well, a little, bird on my shoulder has whispered some instructions and worked the miracle, but it looks as if I'll have to do that for all then files on the disc. However, I'll try for the whole lot now and see what happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 This Microsoft forum page might have the answer, Wooly. Sounds like others have had the same problem!Angela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
