• Windows Server cannot access the folder

  Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Standard, I have a folder that I created.  I can access the folder if I go through the C:\ drive, but can't if I try UNC \\ServerName\ or \\IPAddress\ and receive a

  Windows cannot access \\ServerName\...
  You are not allowed to access \\ServerName\... Contact your network administrator to request access.

  but when I check the permissions on the folder, I'm registered and received a control total change, read & execute, display the contents of the folder, read, write.

  I need to be able to assign the UNC path to a database, and it is a failure because of this problem.

  Anyone have any ideas?

• Cannot access the folder

  Hi Lisa!  I have a similar problem, but I use Windows XP Home Edition.  Under ' advanced settings (step 1 c) there is no area for "simple file sharing" for me check or uncheck. ".  I have a directory under Documents and Settings of a former user who uses this PC is no longer, and the user account has been deleted.  But I don't have access to the files in spite of being the only user and administrator.  I can't access this grace at a command prompt.  The folder name is too long, and the short name will not work.  I tried right click directly on the folder, but not getting anything to work with.  Uncheck "read only" does nothing, and when I look again, it is considered as 'read only' again.  I can't delete the folder.  I can't access the folder.  Any help would be appreciated.

  I'm not Lisa, but you can start the computer with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or a Bart PE disk and copy the data from the file to an external hard drive in this way. You can then delete the folder if you use the Linux NTFS driver (if your Windows drive is formatted in NTFS; he did not need something special if it's FAT32) or just delete it using the Bart PE.

• system cannot access the folder

  I have two files that appear to be unaccesible.

  1. all users/Documents

  2 Program Files/Microsoft Security customer... (created by my first installation of Security Essentials)

  I don't know when the 'Documents' folder has become inaccessible, but the Client Security folder was withikng last week... It is not stopped Security Essentials to work, leading to a virus attack (AMSECURE), OR something else has stopped working and rendered virus attack it the inaccessible folder... (Don't know who)

  I discovered the problem with the "Microsoft Security Client" folder, when I tried to re-installed Security Essentials, while recovering from the virus. Installation has failed every time.  Once I discovered what the problem was, I was able to rename the folder 'Microsoft Security customer', so that the security essentials installation then ok...

  I searched on the internet a solution to the issue of file access and nothing that I do allow me to access the records...

  Both files are displayed as READ ONLY I change, but he returned immediately to READ ONLY. I started in safe MODE and checked the property and everything seems OK, too... all folders and files in the folder have assumed the same properties and are not accessible...

  I finished a full disc and all check/scan that found a few bad sectors, it does not solve the problem...

  I can't open the 'Documents' folder at all... However, I can open the "Microdoft Security Client" folder, but can't open the files it contains.

  When I try to delete it, I get the meesage that a folder it contains is not empty... However, the top folder and the files it contains are all shown as "empty".

  Thank you...

  Thanks JW... He has solved a part of my question...

  The folder users/document all is now available...

  When I listed the attributes not copied... I added me to access FULL and low and behold, now I can access the folder...

  HOWEVER... the folder 'Microsoft Security customer' (renamed to BADFOLDER), has 3 other folders that it contains...

  Backup

  Drivers

  en - us

  After you add me (Graham) and SYSTEM to the list of users with full access, using the *. * to all within the BADFOLDER has also been changed, I can not even open files...

  The top folder (BADFOLDER) is to allow access, but I can't go further... When I try to open all subfolders I get "file are not accessible by the system"

  CACLS folder name now produces

  OFFICE/Graham:F

  NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F

• cannot access the files of another user with the admin account

  I'm on a computer with Windows Vista 64-bit home problems.
  I normally have the computer configured to connect automatically to a non privileged user and rarely use the admin account.
  Recently, I downloaded an update (Finally, more like a relocation to the latest version) and realized that I need the admin account to install properly for all users that UAC would make things a royal PITA with a zillion prompts.

  I quickly disconnected and logged in as admin. Then, I realized that the installation file has been stored in the "downloads" folder in my regular account.
  Worse still, I could not access this folder, or I couldn't tab of future security. All I could do was to 'change the property' to my admin account, but I really didn't block me on these issues. Even from Explorer using "run as administrator" gave me problems, although the DIR command in cmd.com would be the list of people.

  I used the "change user" function to log my account regular and checked the Security tab and saw that the "Administrators" Group had already read and checked 'total control '. Why can't access the admin account? As an admin with XP, I had free access to everything I wanted to leave that I wanted.

  What happens if I was a parent and wanted to check to make sure that my child was not software piracy or download illegal music that would get stuck with the fines because I'm his guardian? How would I go about checking his records?

  What happens if I was an employer at a small office using working groups and wanted to ensure that the employee was not downloading pornography?

  How can I use the powers of the administrator to access other files (regular) user?
  Why do I still need to ask this question? It was automatic under NT, 2000, XP and the various servers at least as high as 2003.

  I found the problem, it was ANOTHER problem with Norton Security Suite for Comcast.
  I uninstalled and did not only to release 100 GIGABYTES of space, my boot time has been cut to a quarter of the former time, and this problem has disappeared.

• Cannot access the HARD disk drive HARD - Satellite P300 recovery

  Hi all

  I want to perform a Toshiba product recovery, using the partition on the HARD disk. I did it before and no problem.

  But when I press F8--> computer repair--> selection language--> then I have to select a user (Administrator / my name/guest) when I select the administrator, it says that my account has been disabled, when I select the user with my name (Kenneth) he continues to the menu where I can choose the different options for recovery. If I select the product Toshiba blah blah thingy a screen comes up saying it can't find 01 HARD drive. I did nothing with the partition containing Vista.

  My guess is that I need to log in as an administrator, which is impossible. My user account in Vista is a Director,

  Can someone please?

  I use a P300

• Cannot access the cd/dvd drive

  I use a laptop Toshiba A300, I do not have cd driver icon in the Control Panel, but the driver is present, I installed the latest service pack tried to update and restore drivers - getting error code 19, even the microsoft fix, this site could not solve, I'm stupid or what?

  Hi BJGreen,

  Thanks for posting your question.

  Please follow the suggestions listed below.

  Step 1:

  Since you have already tried the FIXIT tool and it didn't quite good; I recommend you try to change the registry manually, because it is more reliable. To do this the steps (from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 ) mentioned below.

  1) click Start and then click all programs.

  2) click Accessories, and then click Run.

  (3) type regedit and then click OK.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  (4) in the navigation pane, find and then click the following registry subkey:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  (5) in the right pane, click UpperFilters.

  Note You can also see an UpperFilters.bak registry entry. You don't have to delete this entry. Click UpperFilters. If you do not see the UpperFilters registry entry, you may still have to delete the LowerFilters registry entry. To do this, go to step 8.

  (6) on the Edit menu, click on delete.

  (7) when you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.

  (8) in the right pane, click LowerFilters.

  Note If you do not see the LowerFilters registry entry, unfortunately this content cannot help you. Go to the section "Next steps" to learn how you can find more solutions or more help on the Microsoft Web site.

  (9) on the Edit menu, click on delete.

  (10) when you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.

  (11) exit the registry editor.

  (12) computer.

  Step 2:

  If you have installed a CD/DVD burning software recently, then I recommend you to uninstall and check if the problem is resolved and then reinstall it.

  Kind regards

• Cannot access the folder pictures

  System information:
  Windows Vista 32-bit, Business edition
  HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop
  The fundamental problem is that I can't access my images. The icon appears only as a white sheet of paper instead of the photo icon that normally appears. When I try to access it through My Documents, I have photos, right click and go to properties and it always says that it is a shortcut file, but there is no tab for options shortcuts. I tried to restore previous versions, but he said that there was none. I also tried a system restore, thinking he might have got damaged in the course of a update or something, but not luck.
  I did not need to get into my pictures for a while, so I can't say exactly how long it has been past, only that I noticed the problem today.
  Just do not know how to approach the situation. Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

• Cannot use the option button to access the folder of bookmarks hidden on a dead drive

  I'm on Mac OSX 10.7.5, and I can easily access the folder on my current drive by pressing the option key (so that the hidden library appears) then get bookmarks of otherwise hidden files (since it's my new boot drive)

  BUT

  I need to copy / move my LAST favorites since ten days previously, a dead hard drive. The drive is usable, just not able to start.

  BUT

  Since this amazing new 'hold option on GO in the Finder menu to see the invisible library feature' (sarcasm) requires your operating system to be started, I can't access the bookmarks folder in the library. How can I do this if the Finder is not started on the dying drive? Is - this make any sense?

  Hello

  Hello
  Maybe this can help.

  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.

  For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

  http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_name.jpg

  Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

  General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
  Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  ------------------------------

  If your network consists only of Win 7 and you want a simple network, use it.

  Original title: Windows cannot install the drivers
