This will give you access to the entire C drive. Should then be fairly straightforward to access your wife's profile and copy the files across. Applications will have to be reinstalled unfortunately. If you can't access the C$ share, maybe plug in an external keyboard and use that to share the folders you want to copy across?</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42740.4&return_msg=42740.4" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42740.4"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42740_5"></a><div class="message" id="message_42740_5"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: paul<span class="message_time">13 Jan 2021 20:54</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Dave!! <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 14 Jan 2021 14:39"></span></span> <span class="message_count">5 of 14</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42740.5">42740.5</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42740.4#a42740_4" target="_self">42740.4</a></div> <div class="message_body"> Cheers Dave!!<br /> <br /> I tried a Bluetooth keyboard with null effect, got the virtual keyboard up and can see the winkey is permanently depressed, I may try a USB keyboard and try to disable the onboard keyboard, hopefully it'll do the trick...<br /> <br /> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42740.5&return_msg=42740.4" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42740.5"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42740_6"></a><div class="message" id="message_42740_6"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Peter (BOUGHTONP)<span class="message_time">13 Jan 2021 23:02</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: paul <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 14 Jan 2021 14:02"></span></span> <span class="message_count">6 of 14</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42740.6">42740.6</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42740.1">42740.1</a></div> <div class="message_body"> Simplest would be remove the hard-drive and put it in a USB enclosure, but if you had one you'd probably be doing that already.
