Cant Access Folders

Hello
Can anybody help !
I have recnely fitted a new hard drive and installed windows ( no prob) !
I copied all the users documents into a new folder on the old hard drive, then installed the new one - set up the users and coied the files back.
The problem is that some I cant open some of the folders ( not all).
The folders say there are files in them but wont let me access them.
I would appreciate any help anybody can give.
Regards

Hi There,

As DaveC2003 mentioned.....It's permission issue when you install new OS and try to read the data from previous OS....take a look at the following link with almost similar issue....it should fix your problem too:
