How to make admin account files visible again?

[wearetheborg]

I made an admin password protected in XP media center edition. I also chose to password protect the files when the user account menu asked me to when I set the password.

Now, I cannot access that accounts files even from another admin account. Even after removing admin-1's password.

How can I access admin-1's files from another account?

Thanks, I found this http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/win_xp_mydocs.htm
Easier way to allow access was to:
-{ Quote: "
Windows Explorer/Locate the file or folder in question/Right Click/Properties/Security/Advanced/Owner Tab. In the change owner box, click new owner.

[To Display the Security Tab: Start/Settings/Control Panel/Appearance & Themes/Folder Options. View/Advanced
and clear "Use Simple File Sharing".]
" }-
And I added admin-2 to the user names of the folder.
