< file > is not accessible. Access is denied.

In Vista and now Windows 7, I often get " is not accessible.  Access is denied. "while clicking on in Windows Explorer.  That shouldn't be possible, given that I am an administrator.  Is this one of those things where you explicitly specify Windows to run a program as an administrator?  I don't see an option "Run as Administrator" to the Windows Explorer.

And under the C:\Users\myname folder, there are 2 folders "My Documents".  One of them I can access, but the other is a shortcut that I can't access.  What is the point of having 2 of them?

Programs do not access them. They are used by Windows 7 when it handles the compatibility. This is why they are not visible by default.

    Hello Urbchguy,

    Thank you for your message.  It is possible that the profile has been corrupted.  Let's try the following:
    Connect to your computer with one of the admin accounts that works properly.
    Click 'Start' > click 'My computer' > navigate to the following folder:
    C:\Documents and Settings
    Rename the problematic profile to add _old after profile.
    example: C:\Documents and Settings\jsmith_old
    And then disconnect and reconnect under the problematic connection.  A new profile will be done, you can then copy the 'old' profile data to the new.
    Please let us know if it did or did not help to solve the problem.

  • < drive >: \ is not accessible. access is denied.

    Hello

    I created a VM installed vm tools. so I decided to add a disc more to the system (windows 7 x 64 bit).

    When I format the drive. disc is created and formatted normally but when I want to access it, watch somehow I have no right.

    user with which i m trying to access is domain administrator and UAC is disabled.

    I deleted this record and created another, same scenario. I can't access the created disc.

    any ideas?

    Since you in a field, there are group policies restrict your access?

    Perhaps you could use diskpart to verify if the drive is in read-only mode?

  • File are not accessible by the system

    There is, I had restored my computer using suite recovery of my computer.  I backup all before starting the process.  After when the process was done and I had everybody works very well, I went to remove my files of backup for the space, but I have a really stubborn file/folder.  I'm going to remove it and I get a message saying that the file is not accessible by the system.  From there, I tried going through safe mode to delete, taking possession of the records, using prompt command to remove and even using Unlocker.  None of these methods was able to remove this darn folder.  Now, I don't know what to do next.  If unlocker failed to remove the folder, then I don't think that there many options remain outside to wipe the drive.  and it's something I don't want to do.  So, I ask, what should I do next?

  • Drive external drive is not accessible, access denied.

    My computer (Win7 Home Prem) ran chkdsk after an update of windows, probably triggered by ccleaner or glary utilities. My external hard drive was plugged during the update, reboot and chkdsk. The chkdsk command probably checked my coz external HD, I can see folders/paths that were there. The next day I couldn't access my HD due to a mistake, saying: it was not accessible and access is denied. I searched online potential solution and tried the following without success, and they have been applied using an admin account and an admin cmd.

    * Change the permissions and ownership, but the property always says it's impossible to determine the owner.

    * Changed the share permissions.

    * Do you have 'takeown' and a 'icalcs' has changed owner but same error.

    * Check the disk management, drive seemed ok with the letter drive and all.

    * Ran chkdsk /F on both of my C: drive and external hard drive, both completed successfully without error during the analysis and not found bad sectors.

    * Program of Unlocker used to check if player was running another process, found nothing.

    In my computer, it shows the letter drive and NTFS, but not bar showing free space. Properties would show 0 free space / used. Here I can go to cmd and access the content from there. I used the function of 'Explore disk' of glary Utilities and I could see the content and even run mp4/avi files in the player. So I guess the drive and its contents is ok, just that I can't access it through normal means.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi LeBlanc,

    I apologize for the late response and can certainly understand your concern. I appreciate your efforts. As you mentioned that you are not able to access the external drive, and you receive the error of access denied when you connect to your user account, I suggest to try to create a new administrator user account and then try to access the external drive.

    To create a new user account, please follow the steps mentioned in the link below:

  • Cluster SOA with BigIP as HTTPFrontEnd - deployed WSDL and XSD composite files are not accessible

    Hello

    In our SOA environment, we have an architecture like that.

    We have a Cluster with two nodes of SOA. Each node is to have an OHS. There's a BIGIP which is the HTTP of SOA Cluster interface.

    BIG IP load balancing and HTTP Port 80 and HTTPS 443 port.

    All access to BIGIP is over HTTPS. With HTTP, we are not able to access the artifacts.

    Here, we are faced with a problem.

    All WSDL, XSD, deployed on the server files have as - ends http://bigiphost:80 / soainfra / .....

    These end points are not accessible, and we have to manually convert URLS to https://bigiphost:443 / soainfra / ... for testing.

    Main question is coming when we're trying to raise our composites to RJO. Because the WSDL and XSD files is seen port http endpoints and they are not accessible from the harvester tool. Where a failure.

    Can you please how do ensure that all composite end point and endpoint WSDL are generated as Https://bigiphost:443 instead of HTTP Port.

    I tried two options

    (a) setting serverURL to https://bigiphost:443

    This option modifies all the endpoints and the localities of XSD in a wsdl to the https address document. but it does not composite point endpoint and endpoint WSDL. They are still Http. so not accessible through harvester or browser.

    (b) setting HttpsServerURL to https://bigiphost:443

    It makes a difference.

    Please suggest how can I convert a composite and endpoint WSDL (protocol header) end point to https://bigipport:443 instead of http:bigipport:80

    Thank you

    Jessyca

    Finally got the fix.

    Changed the HTTPServerURL property in the EM Console > SOA-INFRA > SOA Administration > common properties > more advanced properties

    Https://bigipport:443the value HTTPServerURL.

    This helped and all the endpoints and composite WSDL endpoints have been generated with https://bigipport:443 instead of http.

    So overall, I used two properties.

    (a) a HTTPServerURL - change the endpoint WSDL and the composite end.

    (b) ServerURL - change endpoints in the wsdl file with the value set in the present.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is always a good idea to reinstall the operating system when you get a second hand computer

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    ____________________________________________________________

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    __________________________________________________________

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  • 3.5 "hard drive USB enclosure files is not accessible?

    Recently, I changed my system hardware. Got a new motherboard that does not have an IDE socket.

    My previous 3.5 "IDE drive HARD internal cannot be plugged into it. So, I bought a USB (external drive enclosure HARD desktop) box for my old HDD.
    The unit works perfectly.
    Legacy is recognized in the management of the disks (Windows 7) as a removable disk. I also tried to change the name to 'I '. But I can still access the files.
    Can someone please help?

    You must install your motherboard https://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx chipset drivers, if you don't have already done.

    Hi Kyle,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I understand from the description of the problem, that you have problems with registration on the user account on the computer of Windows 8.

    I understand this must be frustrating, but don't worry, we're here to help and guide you in the right direction.

    I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.

    (1) is the computer that is connected to a domain or any form of computer network?

    (2) you are the computer administrator?

    If it's just a PC at home, connect using the administrator account and check the Group Policy client service.

    (a) press the Windows key + R, type services.msc in the Run dialog box and click on enter.

    (b) to navigate down the list until you find Group Policy Client.

    (c) make sure that it is set to Automatic and is started. You can change to double clicking on it and selecting the drop down.

    (d) try the user account login and check.

    It will be useful.

    Let us know if you encounter problems under Windows in the future. We will be happy to help you.

  • Windows 8.1 - permissions of files - do not have access to the files since the abolishment of all permissions except for the system and my own useraccount.

    I had to put in my computer to the repairshop, so I changed the filepermissions on a large foldertree to all permissions for my own useraccount and all permissions for the SYSTEM account, but deliberately deleted the permissions on this folder to 'Administrator', since the repairshop started getting their own account and I had to make that account a member of the Administrators group.

    Now I'm stuck with a bunch of folders and files (strangely, this didn't happen to * all * files under the folder in question) that I can't read or delete, when logged in as the useraccount with all permissions on the files. I've tried everything, and while I had to click on a dialog box explore asking me to provide administrator access to subfolders in the folder in question, some folders becomes fully accessible (possibly), but some button blown up a "Try again" in explore a dialog box - which has sometimes worked but for some records * didn't * work to resume the TP to my own files.

    I want to know how I can find the full access to these files.

    Talk about the size of a cargojet bug...

    If your own username is a member of the Administrators group, then all you have applied to this group is for you also.

    I would like to start by trying to change only the owner of the files to yourself.  Apply and when finished, close all.  Then go back and change only the permissions that should be easier now that you own on everything.
