Using Ghost to crack Microsoft's security protection

I have Windows 2000 and Windows XP on my computer. Recently reinstalled Windows 2000, installed and found that you can not enter Windows XP. Due to the author's negligence, I forgot to back up my original user folder (zzyi4u) in the Documents and Settings directory of Windows XP. There are many useful personal files, and all the files of this user are set to be private. Therefore, when I try to enter this folder under Windows 2000, the system prompts that there is no permission and cannot be accessed.

So, I want to use the Windows XP installation CD to fix it, but after entering the super user password, the system reports the password is incorrect! I had to reinstall XP (without deleting Documents and Settings), and found that I still couldn't get in. Create a user with the same username, and the user's folder does not overwrite the original folder. Instead, add a suffix to the folder with zzyi4u. The original folder still can't get in. How to do? The author tried to connect the hard disk to another computer and found that it could not enter this folder.

Is there really no way to do it? Finally I thought of Ghost. The software has a Windows tool - Ghostexp, which can analyze image files (gho files). So, with a try attitude, I made a mirror of my Windows XP installation partition under DOS. After rebooting, enter Windows 2000, open with Ghostexp, and actually found that you can access this folder. Right click on the folder and select Restore. This way my folder will be born again.

Ghost still has this magical effect. In a sense, it subdues the security of Microsoft's private folders.
