Acesss forbidden! When trying to open project files

I've saved the project files into my htdocs on my Xampp server, but when i try to access them locally, I get Access forbidden!

"You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server."

Error 403

Anyone shed some light?
