I just had my W10 PC decide it would never boot again, at least not with it's current boot disk, saying something about INIT_DATA_MISSING it said. So I had to buy a new Internal Hard disk, find my W10 DVD and reinstall W10 all over again.
Problem is I had loads of images I use in Photoshop (or rather USED to use) because I lost them all on the faulty drive. They were all in the default "Pictures" pseudo folder, but although I have reconnected the old drive (Thanks to SATA), and it is all there, (it is just something to do with the boot that failed) but I cannot find a way to get into the standard Username\PICTURES folder for the original user, as access to it seems to be squirrelled away in the old Registry. (This user had Admin rights)
Anyone know how I can get around this, I would really love to get all my images back, and indeed, my Username\Documents folder as well. I am comfy editing the Registry if that is what it takes ?
