Solve : Backup Files under another users profile?

Answer» THANKS for taking the time to read my question.

I've made a .bat file that I can run that backs up folders under my user profile, and All Users. My .bat file however, does not back up my wife's folders. I have the security on, so I'm guessing that's why it doesn't work.

Is there a way I can put her PASSWORD in the .bat file so that it will reference it, and then back her FILES up?

Thanks,

... or a colleague's or business rival's? hmmm, hadn't thought of that. I suppose my only option is to assign admin privelages back to my wife and I.

Thanks for the help???

BradHere is an idea.
Log on as the Administrator.
Set up a scheduled task to start that batch under the Administrator.
Switch user to your account. Leave the administrator "logged in" and let the computer run unattended. At the right time the backup well start automatically.
I have not personally TRIED this. Maybe SOMEONE else has a better idea.
