  Hello

  Thanks for choosing Microsoft Community!

  I understand that you are unable to view a folder it says access denied.

  Please answer these questions:

  1. don't you set security permissions on this file?

  2 have you made any changes to the computer before the show?

  Allow to refuse has precedence over the permissions, so if you accidentally clicked the box "Refuse" in security options, you may have removed your ability to edit the file in some way.  And since you are the administrator, it means that you will not be able to delete the folder at all.

  At this point, your best bet is to try to take ownership of a file and then change the permissions.

  See the following article:

• "Access denied" error: file/folder

  Well, frustration is here available. I have a home network with 2 machines and an AT & T 2Wire gateway (this is a 2701HG - B if it matters). My machine is connected directly (via ethernet cable), the other machine is connected wireless. Two machines can access the internet with only the occasional hiccup. I wish I could share files between computers, but when I created a shared folder on one, any attempt to copy or create a file from the other fact machine (in the shared folder) the error "Access denied" message. Both machines are running XP Home.

  I found a "Fix It" file to help & support, but works on both machines did nothing. What Miss me? I read a thread that seemed related, but councils were confused to my weak old brain.

  For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard the on all machines (see warning in section A below).

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

  XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

  D. Si one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Get the "Access denied" error when you try to play all video files in another folder on my external hard drive.

  A couple of days, I've had accidentally one of the folders slipped on my hard drive in the folder above him and was presented with the "Access denied" error messages when I tried the two a) reglisser it out & b) open it from the record she had been driven to (which was not a folder of my making that is a jibberish titled folder containing two .vdm files it contains first)

  After receiving advice of a friend, I did a restore from safe mode on the eve of the day when he moved and he did bring him back with all the files and files in the right place, but now I'm getting an access denied for each file, I try to play.

• Destination folder access denied. You need permission to perform this action.

  OK, I'm absolutely sick freaking that. I am logged on as administrator, and there are some files that I can't remove everything. I get the message "Destination folder access denied you need permission to perform this action."

  Why the hell do I need permission? I am an administrator and it's MY computer!

  I tried to fix this for hours now, searching through the forums looking for answers, trying all the things that people give to think (as the change of ownership of the files - didn't work).

  I tried to turn of UAC, but it tells me that I have to restart, which I do, but then when the computer turns UAC turns on again!

  Gaaaah! It's driving me crazy - I'm trying to delete files and folders that I need not, they take up valuable space and they have nothing to do with the functioning of the system.

  Now I know why everyone hates on Vista.

  A lot of files and folders in Vista are unable even to administrators (unlike was the case with XP).  To remove a file, you need all rights to him and maybe same property (and these can be inherited from parent folders or their parent folders is not just a simple matter to change the permissions of the file - unless you remove the inheritance rights in the section advanced as well).  It has nothing to do with YOUR computer, it has to do with the protection of the system of files to be modified, moved, deleted or otherwise modified by people who do not really know what they're doing and causing significant damage. There are places called junction pointshttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb968829 (VS.85) .aspx which should NOT be accessed by anyone for any reason for example.  Now there are places in your own profile which you denied access.  That's how it works on Vista (and I don't think it's different in Windows 7).

  If you think you should have access to delete the file and know that it will cause no harm, so some information here about obtaining permissions (you want full rights for yourself) and appropriate (not always required but sometimes useful).  Being the owner does not necessarily give you the permissions of all rights - sometimes, you need to do both.  Don't forget to go to the Advanced section to check the rights listed there as well as on the home page - they can block you all also if you don't fix them as well.

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To solve this problem with folders, folders takeownership or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html. To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  ====================================================================================================================

  If this does not work, try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when the normal functions to remove Vista not work properly - but it helps if troubleshoot you permission first (even those programs may not work to override only).

  I hope this helps.

• Destination folder access denied

  Background.  I recently bought a new cell phone. It came with the dropbox app to move photos and videos taken with the phone to a PC.  I've installed dropbox on my PC and photo & video transfers started without problem. I run Windows Vista Ultimate x 64 operating system. I am the only user and the administrator of the machine.

  Today, I received an alert of dropbox on my PC telling me I had run out of disk space, and dropbox will not sync until I had released sufficient disk space. I went in my camera under dropbox downloads folder and started to remove. No problem delete pictures, but could not remove the videos in the folder. Any attempt to remove result in destination folder access denied. I right click Properties for the folder and the files that will not delete are showing I own and have full control.

  Need help remove the videos downloaded so I can solve the issue of disk space low on my PC.

  If you use Windows Explorer try closing previews and thumbnails.

  Previews is Union on the command - folder and Search Options - framework of tasks use classic Windows foldersbar.

  Thumbnails are organized on the command bar - folder and Search Options - view tab - and check under Advanced settings - always show icons, never thumbnails and uncheck Show icon file in the pictures.
