Fails to change the icons of the office with the error "access denied, you provide authorization to the administrator to change these settings."

All I'm doing is to change an icon on the desktop and I get the ACCESS DENIED, YOU WILL NEED to PROVIDE ADMINISTRATOR TO MODIFY THESE AUTHORIZATION SETTINGS.  Click on continbue to perform this operation!  When I click on continue, nothing happens!  I am the only user of this computer brand new, and I'm so frustrated, that's not the only time wherever I can't access to my own computer.  I don't know what to do.  I read a previous issue and the answer was average, much too long and complicated.  I'm not a geek, I'm a regular user, old people. I hope someone can find a simple answer.

Original title: access denied

If you log on under an account with administrator privileges, then you should be able to change this icon.

  • Just as a reference: how to FIX the annoying 'White Screen Of Death"with Silverlight and"Access denied"error with computer management.

    Well, I just hope that someone who has met these two mistakes will find my dose. It might save a lot of pointless research on the net.

    SYMPTOMS:
    -When you try to open a Silverlight application in your browser (Firefox, Chrome, IE, etc), your browser displays only a white area. When you right click on the white area, you can click on the Silverlight properties.
    -If you try to start "Computer management" by clicking on the 'My Computer' icon and select 'Manage', you get the following error: 'access denied '.

    CAUSE:
    The following errors are usually the result of a bad environment variable. In this case the "windir" environment variable does not work correctly. You can try running the management of the computer to start > run and entering:
    %windir%\system32\mmc.exe/s %windir%\system32\compmgmt.msc

    Notice the between the characters of percentage windir environment variable. If you run the above code, you will probably get an error saying that MMC cannot open the file. Look closely at the path, it's back!
    You will probably find any % somewhere.

    What actually happened here is the variable windir made reference to another variable: systemroot
    Why this creates problems, I'm not sure. Also, I don't understand what made then variable windir change.

    SOLUTION:
    -From your desktop or Explorer: right-click on "My computer" and select "Properties".
    -Click on the "Advanced" tab and then click "Environment Variables".

    http://pcauthorities.com/images/advanced-system-properties-XP.jpg

    -Did the windir variable. Together to "C:\Windows" do not think that it is already set to "C:\Windows", because windows then tells you. Double-click it to know for sure.

    -See, I told you! Change this to "C:\Windows".

  • I get an error, access denied to the C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Temp

    Original title: access denied to the C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Temp

    Hello

    I have a problem with the Windows 7 C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Temp temp folder. Sort randomly, I lose access to this folder, in the sense that if I open a cmd terminal and I try to cd to that folder, it gives an access denied error (at least that I start cmd as administrator). I noticed in the list of permissions on this folder does not appear the SYSTEM. I read somewhere that this is the problem, so I added back, and then it worked. Unfortunately it disappears every day the list of permissions, and I have to put in place every day which is annoying. Do you know what could cause this problem? How can I see which changes these permissions?
    Thank you

    Hi Razvan,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community

    According the information you have provided, I understand that you found error access denied when using certain commands to the command prompt. I will certainly help you in this matter.

    1. have you logged as administrator?

    2. do you have an antivirus software installed?

    Some commands that you run at a command prompt, you need the administrative privileges for the good functioning of Windows.

    See the link.

    Possibilities:

    1. you are not the administrator. You don't have to enter the admin password valid when he asked for it.

    2. you probably have the problem with the infection by the virus.

    If you ARE the admin, suggestions:

    a. run a full scan.

    b. If the machine is clean, do your Safe Mode system restore.

    How to go in safe mode?

    Restart > immediately and repeatedly tapping the F8 key until you see a black and white scree > top? Touch down arrow, and then select Safe Mode > Enter > now that you are using safe mode. Make your system restore.

  • "ERROR: access denied"on the partition does not work no security and takeown tab.

    Hi assistants.

    It is my last resource to solve my problem, hope that someone can understand. Any help is appreciated.

    I'm unable to takeown to my hard drive using one of the following:

    • Run cmd as admin takeown /f l:
    • Log in as administrator, cmd, takeown /f l:
    • Takeown /f l,: run takeown in Safe Mode (with command line),
    It always returns "ERROR: access denied."

    In the beginning, I have removed all the user/group permissions via right click-> properties-> Security-> edit and he urged something on the legacy, so I followed this and removed everything. (Little I didn't know that it can't be undone...)

    Now when I right click on the drive and make appear the properties, there is no security tab and left click says access denied.

    Sorry, I'm just ideas. Here are the options I have for you:
    (a) see if you can do something when the machine with your repair CD Windows 7 starts in a Repair Mode command prompt.
    (b) save the file elsewhere, and then format the partition.
    (c) let me take a look at your machine (because it is four eyes see more than two).

  • File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file

    Hello.  When I try to delete a file on an external hard drive on a network, I get this error message:

    "File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file."
    I tried to take possession of the file, but there is no security or any other option to do.  Here's what I see when I click on properties:
    In general, details, previous Versions
    Under "Details", the owner is listed as "Everyone".  At the bottom of the box, there is a link "remove properties and personal information."  If I click on that I have two options: 'Create a copy with all of the properties deleted' or "Remove the following properties from the file."  If I select "owner" and click ok, nothing happens - the owner is always listed as "Everyone" and I can't delete it.
    I am running windows 8.
    I am the administrator.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Step 1: Open the file properties

    Step 2: Open the security option, and then click on allow list of user options and select your user name.

    Step 3: Select allow and any other option. Then, closed.

  • DRM - failed to start the Service Local DRM error "access denied."

    Hello, I am a newbie of base to the use of DRM. On my pc WIN personal 8.1, I updated to version 11.1.2.3 DRM. The DRM 11.1.2.2 version has been downloaded yesterday and the Local Service of the DRM has been able to start without problem. However, after update today, I am unable to start the Local DRM Service due to an "access denied" error. Any pointers/tips on how to fix? I'm sure it's an easy resolution but I have searched the internet / this blog/documentation without success. Thank you for your time and please let me know if you need additional information.

    Kind regards.

    Understand my own question. When I ran the installer, logged as an administrator does not cause the installer must be run with administrator privileges. I must explicitly run it as an administrator. Rookie and DRM error error disappears once the installation has been completed.

  • Why do I get the access denied error message when you are logged in as administrator?

    "Error" failed to create the file 'C:\Windows\Fonts\[font name]. " Access is denied. "

    is received when I try to install a font by being logged on as administrator (I'm the only person who uses this)
    computer with password protection guest no account)

    or when I use WinZip the fonts folder is not available

    The fonts folder is blocked with a "read-only" access  I can't find any way to change the permissions on the folder (there is no security tab), and any attempt to change the status of reading is has met an insufficient privileges error message.  I notice that the fonts have been added during the last few days several times but I have nothing personally for it - he did alone (how I don't know).  I admit be baffled by your inability to add fonts using your CD (even though I'm reasonably sure it's read-only permission which is at the origin of the problem). I use Vista Business SP2 32-bit and my comments were based on it.  I never really tried to install fonts on my system, so I don't know if I would have the same problem - I presume that I would give for the same reasons.  The article I posted http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Install-or-uninstall-fonts explains how to install individual fonts in formats of special fonts - it does not how to do when you use a CD with an install button.  Have you tried right-clicking on the button install to see if it brings up the run as Administrator option (it probably won't)?  Here is another article on how to install fonts: http://www.lytebyte.com/2007/07/03/how-to-install-new-fonts-in-windows-vista/.  If you link to the CD player will be able to see the individual fonts and "select all" or according to which you want to install - instead of using the installation with the CD button (if you can find the right folder (s)).  Here is an article from third on the installation of the http://www.windowsreference.com/windows-vista/how-to-install-fonts-in-vista/ fonts that suggests using the install button should work as should drag / drop it into the fonts folder - thought we seem to be having trouble with these procedures (and I think he did the permissions block which I can't imagine why he's here or why there is no security tab allows you to adjust).

    Maybe someone with more knowledge (like Engineer Support or an MVP) see this thread and respond with a solution.  In the meantime, I'm puzzled.

    Have you tried to use a distinct and 3rd party FTP client? If you can successfully connect and download to aid what he would suggest process FTP of Dreamweaver is messed up. And unfortunately, this is not surprising as it may seem, it is a part of Dreamweaver, I can meet quite regularly problems with. You can try to play with the site settings by using the Advanced Options tab, which will provide you with some additional settings for the FTP and see if that helps. Otherwise, you will have to just work around it with another FTP client.
