ACCESS DENIED on Document folders

I have an empty document folder I want to delete. When you try this, a box appears: ACCESS DENIED. I tried different ways to solve this problem. Need some answers.

Hello

If you need to take ownership of the folder first before that you will be able to do whatever it is access is denied. Here is a Microsoft document on taking possession of the files: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421

Note You must be an administrator or belong to the administrator group to do so.

    Hello James

    To be honest I n don't know what the problem is here and since when you have this mysterious number, but please don t get me wrong, but I don t know if your described problem has nothing to do with Toshiba and, in my opinion, you should contact Microsoft and ask them if they have explanations why this happens.

    I am logged as an administrator and my own documents folder.  I created a new folder and moved some files in the My Documents folder.

  • Restore access to My Documents after reinstalling XP, I get the message: 'access denied '.

    Original title: restore access to My Documents after reinstalling XP

    Recently, I acquired a virus with which Microsoft Security Essentials could not cope.  Then one day the computer refused to start.  I wrongly assumed that my hard drive was dead, so I installed a new HD and reinstalled Windows XP.  [Actually, I first tried the upgrade to Windows 7, because program upgrade windows 7 Microsoft has already said that my computer was compatible... but Windows 7 disk says otherwise!]  Then I tried to install the HD original in an another drive Bay and discovered it still worked, but I could not boot from it.  Apparently, the virus has killed the OS (Windows XP) but my files, programs and documents are still there.  The problem is that when I try to access my old "My Documents" folder, I get the message: 'access denied '.  I believe that this is because the files are stored in a password protected user account.  I know the password, but I do not know how to access the files.

    I tried to create a user account on my new HD (with the operating system Windows XP reinstalled) with the same name and the password that I used on my original (with the Windows operating system XP corrupted) HD to create all the document files.  However, opening a session with this account name and password did NOT restore my access to the My Documents folder on my original hard drive.

    I'm out of ideas.  Help, please!

  • To access the files and folders from the hard drive Windows 7 on Windows XP, access denied error message.

    Original title: portable destroyed - need for car access

    I don't know if this is the right forum - please advice if it is not.

    My friend's laptop computer was destroyed in a car accident. I pulled the drive and placed it in my desktop XP system and the drive appear in good health. However, I received permission issues trying to access records on the disk and thought that it was because of me using Win XP and the laptop was Win7x64. My questions below are based on the assumption that I'm not able to access these files on my Win XP system. If this assumption is incorrect, so please let me know.

    I have a laptop that I don't use and put the disk in it. I was hoping it would be plug and play all the new material, but after reading a little online, I know that this is not the best thing to do and will probably not work as did the earlier versions of Windows.

    In the end, I care retrieves the contents of the disc, although it would be great if I could lend my laptop for a few weeks with "its files" until it sorts how to replace the laptop.

    Can I get the player Win7x64 working on the laptop computer of replacement by reinstalling Win7x64 on this laptop? I'm not "means a clean install/reformat, but have rather the Setup program detects an existing installation, and do its magic to get the operating system runs on new hardware?"

    I know that this raises questions of MS licenses. If the installation process could get his old system running on the laptop replacement, if I have a small window of time completely to access his files before being forced to re-register the OS? I'm hoping so.

    I'm looking for only a short-term solution - I do not recommend that he hopes that drive long term because the laptop got quite truncated of the accident, and once he gets a new laptop it will have everything he needs on this subject (OS, licenses, etc.). If I have a small window of time where I can simply copy their important files, or to lend him my laptop with its player and him can bring to its domestic network and the print out of all the things that are important, that it's going to be all together to move them to a new laptop when it is available.

    Thank you

  • Access denied on a "documents and settings" folder in windows 7 with administrator rights

    I get access denied on the ' c: \documents and settings "in windows 7 with administrator rights.  The icon shows a small lock on the (very cute) folder. Permissions indicate full control to the folder. I can only access the contents of the folder by adding it to the library folder. The computer is fairly recent and is very near of the original factory. Unlike my precious computers I left it mostly original except for the odd new program. I never really noticed when it pops up as I was getting used to format windows 7 and thought that it must be "the new way" to 7 " The disk has been partitioned by Asus, which significantly added to the confusion. Now I think that it why documents and settings would be in the same folder anyway?  What is a level administrator uber folder? Any ideas greatly appreciated.

    "Documents and Settings" are not a folder - it's a junction Point.

    It is there to allow legacy applications using the latest Windows 7 folder structure.

    There is nothing in what you can use.
