Open explorer and find the folder you need to access.
Right click and select "Sharing and Security".
Select the "Security" tab.
Click the "Advanced" button.
Select the "Owner" tab.
Select the new owner and check the box marked "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects".
Click OK.
The new owner should now be able to access the files, assuming they actually exist.
Remember, if you move the disk to another system you will probably have to repeat the above exercise.
