Administrator settings prevent me to see and access to documents or files.

I inadvertently changed my administrator setting, now I can't access any files or documents from before the change.

How can I return it?

Take ownership of the files and folders, and then grant you rights to the files.

    Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

    Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

    Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.

    Public share
    = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

  • Hotmail 44 looks like your mother has not finished to set up parental controls for your account settings. Click "Access the parental control settings" to complete the process and access your account.

    I love how you get this error message, and then says that there is no support for this information.  You would think that if MS wrote this error message, they would assume someone would finally get it and need help.  Why I've bothered with this company I have no idea.

    All I want is to get my child HM account work. Ive clicked all this parental control I can find.  If this was the issue of the xbox, Id go immediately to gmail.

    Hello

    Had the same problem as the rest. All fixed now by:

    Abducted child security account for the family (Instructions in this thread)

    Account and went to outlook.com, let the updates.

    deleted the account from the local computer (Windows 8, users through the control panel * no * new user interface)

    Added and ensure that parental control is back on (it is by default)

    Can access the messages and followed the account. The account I had was old enough and not yet been used.

  • It seems that your mother has finished setting up parental control for your account settings. Click "Access the parental control settings" to complete the process and access your account.

    My case is exactly like G - Boy below:

    I had no problems with the installation, but I found myself with the same result... my daughter cannot connect to hotmail that she gets the same error as you indicate above.

    However, I must mention that
    1. I set up both of my two daughters and you can access Hotmail and the other can't.  The same process followed
    2. one who can't access Hotmail, she can always use Instant Messanger

    Your help is appreciated since Windows Live family safety support staff was not able to help and directed me to this forum.

    Thank you.

  • SuperFetch advanced settings? Choice of Apps and it puts in cache files?

    I had problems with SuperFetch since the first installation of Vista about 12 months ago. It becomes unbearable and very irritating.

    I got about 350 GB of MP3 files that SuperFetch plunges in every so often, fundamentally causing my machine becoming unusable for 2 to 6 hours. What happens around 2 - 5 times a week! Generally stopping the service stopped responding, even though from time to time it seems to ignore the stop and continues stolen my drive.

    He also likes a good rumage autour in my Outlook PSTs (also quite large).

    That being said, I'm half-guess that's what he does, it certainly seems to be the case to look at the reliability and the Performance Manager and research on it.

    There is no model to its activity, I leave my machine on constantly hoping that he will do everything he is too busy and caching of the day to the next so I can work without interruption all day working. Although this seems to have little impact, all of a sudden, he started too asked my drive and becomes unusable at random and usually when I have something important to do. Like today at 13:13. THRASH THRASH... slowwwww machine.

    Is there a parameter to exclude certain files and applications to be SuperFetched? I could then exclude Outlook, iTunes, MP3 / AAC and enjoy a beautiful machine running smooth open commonly used applications such as Photoshop and Fireworks quickly.

    The random rampage you describe is Windows most likely to make the system restore backups. There is a simple way to get around, just that resize the maximum storage for backups, and it will take 1-3 minutes to do what really isn't a big deal.

    run: "cmd".

    type for laptop:
    vssadmin resize shadowstorage / For = C: / On = C: / MaxSize = 1024 MB

    for desktop PC:
    vssadmin resize shadowstorage / For = C: / On = C: / MaxSize = 2048 MB

    Any size, the less time the rampage takes BUT you will have less points of restoration in case something goes wrong, 2048 MB I can usually return 3 days at least with activity heavy installation.

    You can check if this is your problem by analyzing the files read / written at the time of the rampage, there should be access \$System Volume Information.

  • Refuse access to documents and settings to Windows 7 Administrator

    Full installation of Windows 7 from MS was purchased in 2010 (now beyond the time of MS support) on a brand new computer. User account unique (me) with full administrator rights and access (so I thought). Last week for the 1st time, I had access to the Documents & settings. Surprise! Folder is locked and denies me access, no matter what I do with all the settings. "You don't have access to this folder", and he denies me, the administrator, the rights to make the changes.  Since I was a year + applications and files installed on this thing, I shudder to anticipate a reinstallation of the system address. Any ideas on how to unlock this file?  There may be others that I don't have reason to still access, but it's one important right now.  NOTE: I'm an experienced user, but NOT a geek, so a large part of the jargon 'inside baseball' is over my head, but I'm uncomfortable procedures, even in the registry (very clear instructions please). I'd appreciate any help that anyone is kind enough to offer.

    In Windows 7, "Documents & settings" are not a real folder but a point of redirection for poorly designed applications.

  • Page rotation script does not (not allowed error security settings prevent access to this property)

    Hello

    I use a script to rotate each pages in pdf format by clicking on a button. I added a script to rotate the file in the click event of the button turn as a javascript. It works in acrobat, but not in adobe reader. Please see the script

    Start = 0;

    nEnd = this.numPages - 1;

    nRotate = 90;
    Try
    {
    If (this.numPages > 0)
    {
    this.setPageRotations (start, nEnd, nRotate)
    }
    }
    catch (e)
    {
    App.Alert ("processing error:" + e)
    }

    But I get this error in adobe reader not in acrobat. "not authorized error security settings prevent access to this property or method". What is the problem. Please someone tell me.

    OK, so here's what you do:

    -Create a new file in a plain-text editor (I recommend Notepad ++) and paste this code:

    safeExecMenuItem = {app.trustPropagatorFunction (function (code)}

    app.beginPriv ();

    app.execMenuItem (code);

    app.endPriv ();

    });

    mySafeExecMenuItem = {app.trustedFunction (function (code)}

    app.beginPriv ();

    safeExecMenuItem (code);

    app.endPriv ();

    });

    Close the player if it was open and then save this file as "MyScripts.js" and place it in the following directory (this is for Windows):

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\Javascripts

    If you want it to run as well in format Acrobat place the file also less:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Javascripts

    Now to rotate the page clockwise attach this code to your button (in Acrobat, of course):

    mySafeExecMenuItem ("RotateCW");

    And to turn them counterclockwise, use this code:

    mySafeExecMenuItem ("RotateCCW");

    Open your file in the player and the buttons should turn pages when you click on it...

    Hi gabrieldemirci,
    You mention that "I was just at my PC then suddenly descended from connection and everything was gone."
    Hear you errors are not displayed or you are unable to connect to the internet?
     
    Is the connection via cable or wireless? If it's wireless, try to connect with a cable and see if the problem is resolved.
    You can try these methods to check whether the problem is resolved.
    Method 1: Run the troubleshooters.
     
    Method 2: Perform a PING test.
    (a) type "Command Prompt" in the find and right-click on the result and click "Run as Administrator".
    (b) type "ping " (without the quotation marks or brackets) and press "Enter."

    (c) post the results here.
     
    Method 3: Updated network adapter drivers.
    Update the network adapter drivers on the site of system manufacturers.
     
    Method 4: Perform a system restore.
    If the problem occurred recently, you can perform a system restore.
     
    NOTE: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
