"Failed to set Security on the Destination Profile. Error - Access is denied."
This is the error that I'm getting when I try to use the User Settings wizard to get all the stuff from the user "Administrator" by "Copy to"-ing into the new user "BullHorn".
I've followed the "How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP" and it all went fine, I restarted and I still have problems. :/
Some general info so you don't have to ask silly questions:
-I restarted.
-The user I'm doing this from has administrative rights.
-Windows XP Pro so there's no need to go into safe-mode.
That's all I think, I'd really appreciate some help.

Don't do it through the system properties.
Navigate with Windows Explorer to c:\documents and settings\administrator and copy from there; the Desktop the My Documents folder and the Favorites.

This was the first thing I wanted to do... That's when some guy over IRC changed my mind and told me how to do it "right". :/
Thanks to that, now the User "Administrator" is somewhat currupted (I'm getting an error but pressing "OK" gets me back into Windows without any noticeable problem).
Thanks for the help, I shall give it a try when I come home.
