I have an old HDD install, I plugged it in to my system to copy over a few files before erasing it. When I try to go to e/users/oldaccount to access documents, it says "You don't currently have permission to access this folder", so I click and I've been waiting over half an hour and it still won't go through. What can I do?

User folders from a different HDD may take a long time specially if there are bad sectors on HDD.
