Have lost access to C:

Hi all hope you can help :)

I some how lost access to the C: drive, everytime I try to get to it I get a message "C:\ is not Accessible access denied" and when I try to manage on the computer I get the access denied message. any help would be great.

Thank you

You can probably fix this by using the system restore. Here we go:
1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
2. select Repair from the menu.
3. Enter the administrator password when you are prompted. It is often empty.
4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
5. set Windows to a point before this problem occurred.

    Hi Alan,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you have lost access to the files of data and images after doing a system restore.

    I would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions to help you best:

    1. Why did you perform a system restore?

    2 do you have questions about the computer?

    3. If so, please specify the question to better help you?

    4. What are the data and images file format?

     

    System Restore will return all your files non-system as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system.

    Based on the current situation, I suggest you to Undo a restoration of the system after performing a system restore.

    Check out the link and check if that helps.

    If the problem persists, or you have any questions about the restoration of the system, do not hesitate to let us know. We will be happy to help you.

    Hello. I seem to have lost permissions to access to my home folder in OS x El Capitan.

    Hey RossM.

    I understand that you have a problem with access to your files and folders in your user folder. Let's see if we can get access to it.

    I would like to start by looking at your home folder permissions. If they are incorrect, you will need to make sure that you are the owner. Take a look at the procedure described below to take care of this.

  • Lost access to the programs, not a virus or registry problem. Lost the rights to the user (?) but cannot access restore or modify user accounts

    1st, I tried almost every fix suggested on this relatively common problem with no joy.  It is not a virus, unless it's something very new not found by all the usual scanners.

    Only way to access the programs EXE is to run the command prompt by going to with CTRL - tour of the new task (run) in the Task Manager menu and then navigate to the appropriate directory and run the program from the command prompt.   Run virus checker and run various registry fixes recommended here with no joy.  Safe mode does not help with the launch of the EXE.

    Because I get the 'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.  When I try to run an exe from a link, I think I have lost the user privileges.  But, since I can't change the accounts of users or the restore, I can't try to do anything there.

    This problem occurred after uninstalling several old unused programs followed by performing a disk defragmentation.  (everything is done using Microsoft System Tools).  PC worked after doing these things in vain after the next reboot.

    Curiously, I CAN start the web browser from the start menu to post this message.

    Another clue: I can't start programs by clicking on them, but I CAN run the program by opening a file type associated with this program, i.e., opening a file named text.doc will cause Word to open.

    I am a fairly experienced user, but I'm stumped.  Any suggestions?

    Found solution...

    Looked user accounts change program but cannot find or identify it was so impossible to try it.

    I was finally able to identify (in trial & error) the restore program and run it using the command window.

    The program (rstrui.exe) was found in C:\Windows\System32\Restore\rstrui.exe

    I was able to run and to restore to a date when this problem started and that fix.   Still don't know what was the problem of the root but happy to be able to fully use this PC back again.
     
    Thank you to everyone who made suggestions.

  • Lost access to the preferences of the two priniters printer

    I lost access to the preference files to printer on the printers connected by USB 2 to a laptop running Win. XP.  The printers work without them.  I have since installed a new driver on one.  The problem remains. I join this printer to another computer and there is no problem.  Advice please on the best way to analyze this problem because there seems to be a lot of possibilities.

I join this printer to another computer and there is no problem.  Advice please on the best way to analyze this problem because there seems to be a lot of possibilities.

    If I understand correctly, Windows XP indeed cannot replace printer drivers in certain circumstances.  The best way to go is to make sure that the old (maybe corrupted) driver is deleted and then reinstall the printer using an installation package of fresh driver (usually obtained by downloading from the website of the printer mfr).

    1. Unplug the printer.
    2. Uninstall the software associated with the printer using the control panel > Add / Remove programs.
    3. Open Printers and faxes and delete the printer (right click > delete)
    4. In printers and faxes, click file > server properties > tab drivers.  Select the driver concerned, then click on remove.
    5. Restart the computer.
    6. Run the installation package that you downloaded.  Do not connect the printer until prompted by the installation program.
  • I have limited access to windows

    Again, I try to write what I've been cut off as soon as I finished the last time. Here goes.

    I was getting the error messages from Windows Update, microsoft asked for help on how to fix.

    Nothing worked, so finally they advised me to reinstall my Opertating system.

    I knew that I had to back up files and I saw the message that I would not be able to access from the new facility, but

    could access something like Windows.old, so I went ahead and re - installed.

    Disaster!  All files lost but worse yet... all done laptop now is to download and install without as much as goodbye your leave...

    I cut OFF... butts in and now finally took my admin rights, and I only have limited access

    Only e mail, without tab, no link, no sound, no button start... nothing.

    I called Dell, but told me that I don't need product key, that this laptop comes pre-installed.  I bought at Tesco.

    However, to get the key of product and Windows authorization request.

    I'm almost in tears with frustration. any help welcome. Liz

    Hello xLiz

    I can help with the serial number. You said that you have an email with the serial number, but to check it try the following to make sure that it is correct. You can retrieve the serial number of your bios, as long as the company that bought the system made no changes in the bios. First off your system. Once it has powered completely down, turn it back. As soon as you see the Dell logo screen immediately start to press the F2 key several times. This will load the bios. In the main bios screen, you will see the serial number. All Dell computers have the label of service that are stored. Note the serial number and if you see another number called the Express Service Code you want to write this one as well. Do not make any changes in the bios. Press the ESC key and exit the bios. I hope that helps you to check the serial number. Also, to see if the system has left no warranty or for more information about your system, click on the link below and enter your Service tag. I hope this helps.
    * Edit *.
    Another way, you can check your service number is to go to www.support.dell.com. Once you are on the site, click the drivers and downloads at the top. You will get a pop box asking you how you want to search for your system. Select the option chosen by the serial number. The next window will present you with an option to enter your service tag or you can select the find my Service tag. Select find my Service tag. A window appears asking if Dell can scan your system, select Yes, I agree. You can get a notification asking to install DellSystemLite. Allow to install. After the installation you will be presented with a picture of your system and the serial number appears directly under the name of your system.
  • want to set up Analytics for my Officejet, but have lost the CD with the printing software

    I have the OfficeJet 6500 E709n all-in-one, and I want to set up the function of scan on my Macbook Pro.  The printer function works very well from the laptop.  I have lost the CD with the software on it.  What are my options?  Thank you.

    Hi Dannyp43,

    You can download the software and drivers for your HP.com E709n.

    Please followthis link to access the download page. Click on the '+' next to the driver, then click on the link for your version of Mac OS X. you have the following options to choose:

    -How to install your product in 10.7.x (Lion) - this is a document that shows you how to install 10.7

    -Full Feature software and driver for® 10.6 (Snow Leopard) - after clicking this link, there will be a download button.

    -Full Feature software and driver (Universal) for 10.4 and 10.5 - after you have clicked on this link, there will be a download button.

    Once you have downloaded the software, double-click on the .dmg (download it), and then in the window that opens, double-click the HP Installer.

    If you install USB, connect the cable before beginning installation.

    If wireless, connect the printer to the network (using the front panel) before installing - this is not necessary, it just makes go more smoothly. You can also configure the wireless installation using wireless USB installation.

    Hope this helps

  • After an automatic update, lastnight (13 December), has lost access to the internet through the guest account.

    Original title: Guest account Internet connection

    I am using an account on windows 7

    There has just been an automatic update, lastnight (13 December), and now I've lost access to internet through the guest account.

    I think that because of the update, the administrator must log or something, but I'm lost what to do. The internet worked for the guest before the update account and I do not have the administrator password. The administrator has not used the computer because I had an internet connection, as they went on vacation. I'm looking after their cats!

    Any help would be great.

    See you soon

    Tom

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    Since you lost the internet connection after updating, you may need to update the NIC drivers to retrieve the connection. This is possible only if you have administrator privileges.

    For more information, see the article:

    What is a guest account?

    However, you can check if you can try the steps in the article to resolve the problem. If this isn't the case, you may need to wait for the administrator to return the party to the same difficulty.

    Hope this information helps.

    If you need further assistance, please answer and we will be happy to help you.

  • Lost access to local data store

    Hi people:

    I have ESXi 6.0 running on an Intel S2600CWTS motherboard using the LSI SAS controller onboard and six readers Samsung 850 Pro SSD in a RAID 5 configuration.  This server is about a month and a half, and it worked fine for the first month, but in the last few weeks I started to do in the case where journal messages saying that ESXi has lost access to the data store, then, most of the time, about 15 seconds later access is restored.   Several times it took more time, which one crashed the server.  On these long, the motherboard Intel event log showed that a player had failed and began a regeneration and once the motherboard has shown that two different drives had failed, and it took both offline originally ESXi crashing.  On it that I was able to bring the two records back online via the RAID bios and everything worked fine again.  I suspect that I have hard disk problems because these discs are new and because different readers have been reported as failed, and also because no data has been lost even if 2 drives went offline at the same time.   I guess I could have a bad controller LSI, or a cable has come loose somewhere, but I expect to happen if it is really the case of data loss.

    I also noticed that lost access messages tend to appear in the log at the moment I start a virtual machine.  At first I thought that it would be one thing to flow, thinking a VM departure did a lot of IO, but this happens immediately, before even the bios of the virtual screen machine disappears, so I don't think that the virtual machine is actually reading the disc again.  In addition, as a precaution, I started the migration of some virtual machines on the server to the old server I still had available, and there is no lost access messages in the event log while that was happening, while about 50 megabytes per second of i/o has reached the disk during transfers.  I put the last patch on ESXi in mid-May, about two weeks before this started, and I begin to suspect that the patch may have something to do with it, because it seems to me that if something is happening between ESXi and the disk controller making hang up or lose interruptions during a short period of time , and I wonder if it goes pretty long if material in the motherboard sensors interpret this as some sort of hardware and simply brand failure according to readers I / O was hooked as bad then.

    Unfortunately I'm out of town now so I wanted more I had to the remote server, lest I do not not get back to the top.  I moved a couple of the most critical virtual machines from the old server which I was remotely start and transfer to virtual machines.  I also noticed that this issue tended to occur more frequently when I got to the top of the VCenter Server apparatus that any other (sometimes to others, but has happened every time I tried to start the device VCenter).  So who was the first that I moved to the old server, but strangely enough there is no error logged when I transferred the files, so the issue is not that ESXi had trouble reading the VMs vmdk file when I started it.

    I also wanted to ask you if there are any vibs for the LSI Megaraid controller on motherboard S2600CWTS I could install that would allow me to access the RAID controller without having to pick up the server and do it from the BIOS configuration screens, similar to how you can access the controller RAID from Dell while ESXi is running via a vib add-on.  So far I have not found one.

    My intention when I go to the server is to run an integrity check against the RAID 5 array via the controller and then use the AIMÉ ESXi utility on the data store to see if something is wrong here.  If not, then I guess I'll rewritten can patch.

    Ideas or suggestions welcome.

    Success!  I finally understood what the problem was corrected.  The problem is the fact that although the last vib driver LSI has been installed, for some reason any it would not automatically replace the default ESXi pilot lsi_mr3.  I did not notice that even though the latest driver package vib properly installed LSI controller was still using the original driver.  This could be considered by a 'esxcfg-scsidev - a' command showed that even "vmhba1 lsi_mr3 link-n/a sas.5001e67ca647e000 (0000:0: 00.0) controller LSI MegaRAID SAS Fury."  The second field after the controller (vmhba1) is the current manager used.  The pilot, which was to be used was: "vmhba1 megaraid_sas link-n/a unknown.vmhba (0000:03:00.0) Avago (LSI / Symbios Logic) Invader MegaRAID SAS controller.

    To fix this I had to disable the lsi_mr3 driver so that ESXi is forced to use it.  The procedure to do is the following:

    (1) make sure you have the new EXSi driver you want to use already installed.  I assume that bad things would happen if you have disabled the only driver who could run your disk controller.  Use this command to view the drivers installed: "esxcli software vib list" and you should get something similar to the following:

    [root@intelserver:~] esxcli list of software of vib

    Verify that the scsi-megaraid-sas driver is installed before proceeding.

    (2) to disable the lsi_mr3 driver do the following: "esxcli set of module system - enabled = false - module = lsi_mr3 '

    (3) reboot

    After restarting, do: "esxcfg-scsidev - a" to check megaraid_sas driver is assigned to your disk controller.

    I don't know how ESXi decided to prioritize if two or more drivers are applicable to a single hardware device, or if the installation of the new driver LSI process is supposed to disable or remove default lsi_mr3 driver and simply failed to do so.  Also, I don't know what's going to happen when I put on the next patch of ESXi, specially if the lsi_mr3 driver will be once more the priority.  If anyone knows how the driver installation process is supposed to work in this situation, please let me know.  I am so happy that I finally got this problem because the server has been seriously covered with the data store become unaccessable for 5 to 10 seconds every time a VM started or stopped, and the former driver at least once done something bad enough to deceive the controller into thinking that one of the disks has went wrong and began a RAID Resync.
