How do I access files in a broken Google nexus tab?

[Android Central Question]

I cracked myGoogle Nexus 7 tab’s screen. I cant seem to access the files through PC as it has a pattern lock. The screen parts arent available in the market either. I just need to access my files in the tab. What do I do?

Your options are:-

1. Restore your backed up files to a new device using your Google Account. This may not restore the data you want
2. Get the tablet repaired, perhaps buying a used one to cannibalise
