Acronis errors and solutions - specified file doesn't exists

32) Specified file doesn't exists.

Windows XP:
The only workaround is to take ownership over the files and/or folders you need manually in your new profile to overcome the issue. You then will be able to access, view and change these files and/or folders.

Follow the below instructions:
(1) Taking ownership of a folder.

You must be logged on to the computer with an account that has administrative credentials. If you are running Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, you must start the computer in safe mode, and then log on with an account that has Administrative rights to have access to the Security tab. If you are using Windows XP Professional, you must disable Simple File Sharing. By default, Windows XP Professional uses Simple File sharing when it is not joined to a domain.
