• Cannot delete a folder in Windows 7, file access denied error

  When I try to delete a file in my main account from Windows 7, he asked permission of the administrator. I agree with permission but then he said: I need the permission of the account holder. I am the owner of the account. It keeps giving me the dialog folder access denied with choice of 'Try Again' or 'Cancel '. How to regain possession of this folder.

  FYI, I've upgraded this Vista computer. It's my main account in Vista.

  I tried to change the permissions in the Properties window, but it doesn't seem to work. I can be wrong step by step instructions you know. Also, if I can make it to the full account at the same time, it would be wonderful.

• Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager)

  Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager).  I have reset Photoshop like application default for jpg files, rebooted.  Nothing has changed.  The ideas people?

  Hi R_Kelly,

  Hidden folder/file settings was the first place, I checked and kept checking each new reboot.

  I have copied below my temporary solution I posted in another forum thread.

  See point 7.  I found a way to make it visible again.

  1. I can see all jpg files created before Win10 update AND all the jpgs created by other programs, other than Photoshops after Win 10 update.

  2 Photoshop cannot see the newly created Photoshop created jpg files in the file picker at all since Upgrade to Win 10.  I've never had a problem of invisibility of file before winning 10 update.  My hidden files were always checked to be visible.  However, Photoshop can open if listed files in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

  3. the files are not visible or clickable at all in Windows Explorer tree or the Photoshop file selector. They become open and visible when listed in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

  4 Microsoft Office applications can't see the new Photoshop created Jpg files in file, only pre Win 10 update pickers jpg created by other applications and versions.

  5. the problem occurs only with Photoshop jpg created after the Win 10 update.

  6. I checked the settings "Show hidden files, folders and files of the operating system", and they remain as they were, which allows all the hidden to visible objects.  I kept the visibility settings files in this way since the early 1990s.

  Temporary fix below *.

  7. I did yet another simple search of the text Windows Explorer, he finds invisible jpg files less all links 'recently used' who were there yesterday (2nd day after I created the files), I checked the location of file properties file and it entered the original file I saved their.  Using a right-click of the mouse on the file to bring up the menu actions and file properties, I was able to copy and then paste the file into another directory.  I jumped on the directories to see if it remains visible and he (Yes). The new copy is now visible to the pickers of file in Photoshop and Microsoft Office applications.

• Cannot drag - drop images from Windows Explorer in 7 elements

  Hello...
  
  I am a newbie to Photoshop Elements 7... I can't drag and drop images (jpeg, tiff, RAW, Olympus) of Windows explore (File Explorer and not IE) to Photoshop Elements as I can with Corel Paint Shop Pro X 2? He also works in Corel Painter IX.5 & ArtRage 3 (except for RAW)... My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit... I uninstalled and reinstalled the elements, but in vain. I also tried to run the items under different compatibility modes, but still no luck...
  
  Any ideas?

  It's driving me crazy...
  
  Thank you kindly
  
  Ken

  I just remembered: If the editor or organizer "run as Administrator", then you can't drag and drop in Windows Explorer.  To see if you are running the program as administrator, start right click the icon of the bureau or the menu that allows you to launch PS, then select Properties.  On the Compatibility tab, is run this program as administrator checked?  (Note that in Vista and Windows 7, running a program as an administrator is different than running it in an account that is a member of the administrator group).

• Default folders: How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

  How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

  Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

  Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

  It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.

  Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

  Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

  I hope this helps in your situation.

• Windows Explorer: Files & grayed out after Trojan Virus deleted folders

  Lucky me some site I went to via an alert Google downloaded a virus and I had to restore my Dell PC to factory settings. In any case, I keep all my data on 2 external hard drives, so I didn't lose data on the C:\ drive.

  So, everything is 'back to normal' but one of my external hard drives, a Maxtor 3200, exploring with Windows Explorer showed no top file until I selected in Windows Explorer, the option 'To see the hidden files' - now I can see and even access to files and folders, but they are all grayed out when displayed in Windows Explorer. I reread the Maxtor and AVG shows as own. Any help is greatly appreciated!
  David

  When you choose to show hidden files, then any file or folder that is hidden will appear gray as you describe.  What you need to do is to display the files and folders.  You can do this by right-clicking the file or folder, select 'Properties' and uncheck 'hidden '.  Another method is to open a command window (start-> run-> "cmd") and use the "attrib" command to show files and folders.

• Windows Explorer - file list grayed out

  The files listed in Windows Explorer icons are gray.  Some programs cannot find these files.
  For example, the thumbnail of a jpg file is grayed out.  If I open the file with Windows and FAX viewer, the image appears but if I opened with Microsoft Picture Manager image is not displayed and a message saying that no files are in the folder.  Other programs, Eudora, BasicX, also can not find the files.  Microsoft Word and PowerPoint have not problems.  I recently did a system restore to two days ago for override contained in an attachment to email USPS.com false Trojan horse.

  Any help is appreciated.

• Firefox (15) inserts a "Firefox HTML document" in the Windows Explorer file > new menu. It breaks my work bosses (Alt-FWF stops working). You will need to disable.

  Looks like you are part of the many people that does not agree with the features that have been removed from Windows Explorer.

  Installation of the classic interface can help. See the links below.

  Unfortunately when Microsoft Windows Explorer, they made some pretty horrible decisions - which many people complained. There are a lot of other managers of files available, as well free and for a price. One of them might be easier to use and the characteristics you want, here is a list of the most that are available:

  The most important fix or return to Windows Explorer features:

  (1) the option to turn off the auto arrange.

  (2) fix the Bug of scrolling in the left pane: If you view a folder and expand in the left pane to display its subfolders, the folder is annoyingly prefer to the bottom of the component causing the subfolders do not appear, making it difficult to work with. Double click on a folder in the left pane can also cause this problem.  Vote to fix it..

  (3) when several files are selected they should stay selected when changing the sort order (ex: name of size). Maintenance of the files selected in the sort should be a requirement, and this feature should not have been removed.

  (4) the option to remember the view settings of each folder (Recalling the positions and sizes of the individual folder window).

  (5) the option to remove 'Complete the selection of lines' to see in detail. "Selection of whole lines" is very annoying when the file is complete and has no empty space to click on. Also, when dragging / delete the file to another folder - if you release the on the line of a subfolder or file de.exe/.zip/.rar 'selection of whole lines' causes the file to be moved in the subfolder ou.exe/.zip/.rar instead file the file provided.

  (6) a search engine with all the advanced search options. No required syntax.

  (7) the option to always display free disk size space and record on the State and/or the details pane toolbar. Also always automatically show the size of the selected files (when several files are selected it will not show the total size).

  (8) the option to show the pane that is your mouse with wheel mouse, even if this pane is not selected.

  Using the classic interface to restore functionality of Windows Explorer

  After you have installed the free Classic Shell , you can customize Windows Explorer more closely to how you want it, the quote below is just a way to do it. Click here to see some of the options that you can customize, and here is the FAQ page for the classic interface.

  A solution that worked for the restoration of some features.

  (1) install the free Classic shell.  It's very customizable and works like a mod for Windows Explorer rather than a full blown replacement. You need to install the classic Start Menu option, but you can if you wish.
  (2) restart the computer.
  (3) launch Windows Explorer (Start - computer) and turn on "Always show Menus" (organize - Layout - check menu bar). It's just for the configuration, you can disable it again later if you wish.
  (4) make a right click on the menu bar and turn in the "Classic Explorer bar. This adds a series of icons for cut/copy/paste in Explorer. Basically, it also adds the "Configuration" icon
  5) go to the configuration and from there you can edit things to your heart's content. To kill the horrible record-jumping 7 Windows, place you Vista in 'Style Navigation pane. You can even hit back to XP mode if you want (this adds lines to the tree of folders and adds a classic icon "+" for the expansion of folders). The Windows Vista folder display style looks about the same as the view from Windows 7, but it gets rid of the horrible blow.
  (6) adjust other settings you want.

  After that, you can activate the toolbar and menus walk back to explore if you wish. Explorer Windows seems largely the same, but folders is no longer jumping around.  Vote for Microsoft to fix this bug.

  Now if only MS allows to code correctly so that we don't have to mess with third-party applications to get Windows actually works...

• Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

  WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

  Hi kathyd,.

  ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

  Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

  Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

  Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308427

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

  You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

  I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

  3. I can copy files in CMD promt is not a security problem.
  4 also makes a clean boot

  Please can you help me

  M.R.

  I read a few testimonials online that this can be caused by a damaged or replaced system file.

  Try to start a CMD window (i.e., Run As Administrator) and running: SFC /VERIFYONLY
  If it indicates problems you can use SFC to restore your protected system files: SFC/scannow

  If you have full faith in the Microsoft System File Checker, you can ignore the /VERIFYFILES and just do the second command, because it will check the files and automatically restore any file that has been damaged or replaced.  I saw no reason to be wary of SFC, but I would like to know what's going to happen before it happens.
