Hello all,

I seem to have an access problem with an old windows FOLDER, let me try to make it clear what occurred.

I installed XP on a new PC, that worked for a while until a power failure.
Installed XP again, under a new name, so there where actually 2 installations on one DISK.
I thought i could easily delete the folders from the first, but doesn't work.

Allready figured out that its possible to change the name of a folder in DOS so it isn't blocked anymore in XP.

Only thing now is how to do this? An extra problem is that the name of that folder contains a space EG: S B
I hope that one of you KNOWS the right commands in DOS to do this and that he/she can type this out for me.

Your help will be appreciated!I presume when you mention DOS, you're referring to the NT command prompt.
