Access denied to records: Windows7, 32 bit, professional

I have a PC brand new (at home, I'm the only person who uses it) a new installation of Windows 7, 32 bit, professional, & Office 2007.

All of these files are locked, and access is denied.
C:\Documents and Settings
C:\users\administrator
C:\Users\All users
C:\USERS\DEFAULT
C:\USERS\DEFAULT user
C:\Users\Public
C:\Users\myname

When I right click on a folder, there is no option not called 'run as administrator' to select.
It only allows me to install some programs.
If I download a .exe file or .zip, the system seems to grasp, place it in a folder 'Download', sometimes I find the file but I can't touch.
If I make a template in Word (.dotx) it won't save in the templates folder, so I can't access my model of the word; as in "file > new".
and so on.

I always ran two hard drives, one for the operating system & one for my data, so my data are not affected at all.

I spent days searching & read under "access denied, unable to view folders, locked, padlock, get full access, administrator permissions, obtain full administrator rights" etc & although I have read hundreds of responses, nothing seems directly to solve my problems.
I follow only one answer & "administrator login" so I can spend now user between the two, my name & ID of the administrator, but the locked folders remain always the same.

Please, is there anyone that could help me? Thank you very much.

There is a simple fix called 'take ownership' I only would use if necessary to take possession of the entire disk may cause problems.

  • Access denied to records system Win - impossible to install drivers or important updates

    Hello everyone,

    the title pretty much says it all, and I'm desperate. All of a sudden I have no write access to key Windows system files more. I use a password protected administrator account, but all users or groups of users lost their privileges, which is immutable, given that I don't have permission. Now I can not install the drivers of material or some important updates to Windows.

  • Equity access between Windows Xp sp3 32-bit & 64-bit Windows 7 Professional

    Hi all

    XP sp3 sometime, I can access of windows 7 (64-bit) professional sharing some time cannot be accessed, even I can't enter network, windows 7 to windows 7 is ok, no any problem can still access. What should be is the problem?  Total 15 pc accesses this share all windows 7 except a Xp machine, is that occur only a few times, this time I make restart the pc (Win 7) then xp machine can access.

    Hello

    ·         Do you have an error message when you browse to Windows 7 from Windows xp?

    ·         Is that what happens on all windows machines 7 or a particular machine?

    I suggest temporarily disabling software antivirus (and any other security software) and firewall on the Windows 7 computer as a test and check if this solves the problem. Follow the steps in the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    If disabling the antivirus software solves the problem, you may need to configure the settings of the antivirus as a result program.

    Note: make sure that you enable the antivirus software, other security and firewall programs.

    Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Alternatively, you can follow the steps described in the links for Windows 7:

  • connected as long as User1 I can only access the srv record (Explorer) - execute / run as he is denied (the path not found or insufficient rights)

    Original title: denied enforcement program

    Configuration:
    -Win server 2003 standard (in the Working Group)
    -Portable Acer Aspire 5100, Windowx XP Home Edition sp3

    Problem:
    On laptop, there are 3 users: administrator (administrators), (power user) User1 and User2 (user).
    Logged on as administrator or User2 I can access the server disk, run the executable SRV drive etc, but connected as
    User1, I can only access the srv record (Explorer) - execute / run as it is denied (the path not found or)
    insufficient rights). The same phenomenon occurs even if User1 receives administrator rights.
    On the server side there is no restriction or limitation to User1 (because it's in the group, where
    any member of this group (also User2) has no problem). Logging as User1 on others
    PC there is no problem.

    When sp 3 first came out in ' 08, there was a fatal error that caused a problem with the amd chips. I had to take my computer repair. Now you must have sp3 to get new software.

  • Access denied to the 2nd hard drive in Win 7 Professional 64

    I installed Win 7 Professional 64 with two volumes (drives C and F) RAID mirroring. Everything was working fine and then all of a sudden, I can't access the second RAID - F drive. The hard drive (drive F) appear in the disk management tool and that it appears in 'Computer', but without showing any space on the disk. In the disk management tool, the drive and the space appear. When I try to access the drive F, I get an access denied message. It was working fine a few hours ago.

    Although this thread has been some time, I see that it gets still visited regularly. In hopes of helping someone else with the process of the two part 'Take Ownership' and 'Give permissions' for an entire hard drive, I have attached a .pdf document. It is basically all the same steps provided by Juliette V above, but includes screenshots for each step to help the novice user.

  • "Windows can't open add printer." Access denied error message. "When I want to add a printer for win 7 64 bit OS > see details below

    I can't reinstall my printer Epson WiFi is on my network. I recently installed a "update package" published on 11/04/2011 Epson. I have a HP Pavilion laptop g7 with windows 7 64-bit OS. I can't go back to "System Restore" to the date of my installation of update. I have an another HP laptop also on the network, and he has no problem printing. I reinstalled the Epson printer so I can print a page of the Epson, but windows does not recognize the drivers I am not able to print anything else. I can not add the same "a Note" as my printer because of the error message "Access denied" mentioned above. I have tried to install using the disc to Epson, and then after uninstalling all things Epson I installed on the Epson site. Note: I'm on the same network "workgroup" as the other laptop, however, when I go to my computer > network it shows 2 laptops, devices, multifunction, Network Infrastructure devices, printers and Scanners. The only difference between the 2 laptops in this area is that mine shows 'Gateway Internet' in the 'Network Infrastructure' and the other laptop shows router WiFi. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  • Photoshop cs4 access denied when you try to install from disk in Windows 7 64 bit.

    Photoshop cs4 access denied when you try to install from disk in Windows 7 64 bit. I tried in

    safe mode and it starts to install, but get an error there as well.

    What should I do?

    So when you put the disk in it does not work properly? When the disc is inserted, you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1. install and another to see what is on the disk. Choose to open the disc or explore. Navigate to the folder where is the photoshop CS4 .exe file (which runs the Setup program), right-click on the .exe file and choose Run as administrator and it should start. See if it will install. If this isn't the case, then read below.

    I don't know how long you got in the installation until so chances are, you will need to run the CS4 Cleanup utility. 2 levels to run but do not use 1 or 2 just type number 3.

    http://www.Adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html

    You may need to run the utility windows install cleanup too

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301

    Before you try to reinstall the software make sure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is delete. It has caused problems in the past with vista and CS4 installs.

    You can also disable windows Defender and all antivirus software. You can keep UAC Windows 7.

    When installing CS4 to 90 percent, it stops almost and may take 5 to 10 minutes at the end. It's normal. What a pain huh...

    After the installation is complete, restart

    After restarting, go to the icon of CS4 64-bit or 32-bit (depends on 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7) in the starting area, right-click on CS4 64-bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit), and then choose Properties, Compatibility tab, and then check run as administrator at the lower part. Hit apply, ok to finish.

    Now, run CS4 and run the update.

    Usually, you should be able to easily move data from Windows XP to Windows 7 computer via external data. This should not affect the data on external hard drive if the condition of the drive is good.
