• error message trying to run a clean boot "an access error was returned while trying to change a service."

  While trying to solve a problem with IE 8, I have a problem trying to run a clean boot.  When I start up I get a message on change in the config file. Click ok and sys config is displayed. Now, if I make a modification, OR not, I get an error message - "an access error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an administrator account to make the specified changes. "First of all I am logged on as administrator, secondly I get this error even when I select"normal start ". I used the clean boot before without problem.  Any ideas?  I am running win xp sp3.  I started having problems after the sp3 upgrade.

  Given that you are not using the standalone SP3 Installer AND since McAfee was working at the time of installation, that's what I'd do (well, I would do it only if I was almost 100% convinced there was no malware on my system):

  1. download the McAfee removal tool.

  2. download the installation file for the free version of Avira AntiVir.

  3. download the standalone SP3 Installer.

  4. download the standalone installer of IE8.

  5. physically disconnect from the Internet.

  6 turn off the automatic updates (temporarily).

  7 uninstall McAfee.

  8 run the McAfee removal tool to make sure that all other loose ends are supported.

  9 Uninstall SP3.

  10. run the system restore, select the before date SP3 has been installed.

  11 uninstall IE8 (and IE7, if necessary). Reason: It is important to be at the level of IE6.

  12 install the SP3. Reset.

  13 Installing IE8. Restart twice.

  14 install AntiVir.

  15 re - connect to the Internet.

  16. download and install the update of AntiVir.

  17 go into Windows Update and install all post-SP3 SECURITY update (stay away from any optional object).

  18 re-rockers automatic updates.

• iDRAC 7 launch Virtual Console fails with access denied error

  Hello

  whenever I try to launch the idrac video console 7, it fails with an "Access denied" error it's weird because I'm connected to the idrac as superuser. I use JDK 1.6. I tried through different browsers and I still get the same error.

  Found the same problem after an update of the Firmware to iDRAC.

  To address I created a new user account and permissions of base. Seems "Access Virtual Console" even when checked permissions do not actually post update.

• Vise to install 1008:9,-5000 access denied error installation Vocalizer for Logic 9

  I get the error:

  1008:9,-5000 access denied error

  As I am installing of Sonivox Vocalizer. It is a plugin for Logic 9.

  I traced down on the threads here that it's a common problem with the vise Installer application that many use to install their software, so they do not install for the same reason. Apparently the cause of changes in security in mac OS.

  How manually set privileges TEMPORARILY so that I can get this software to be installed from the installation disc?

  P.S. I already do not clean install (only admin), updated, then disk utility used to repair permissions and that it was not fixed.

  Only suggestion I've seen who could work is to understand what files they are manually and selectively instal time machine. Don't know what files choose so what makes a very hit or miss solution and I would rather understand how to change the permissions.

  You may need to restore the permissions on your user account. To do this, start on your recovery partition (hold down the command and R during startup) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In the Terminal, type: 'resetpassword' (without the), press return, and then select the admin user. You do not have to reset your password. Click the icon of your Mac hard drive at the top. In the list box below, select the user account that has problems. At the bottom of the window, you will see a box labeled restore Home Directory permissions and ACLs. Click the button to reset there. The process takes a few minutes. When you're finished, restart.

• Impossible to update of Windows Media Player and Microsoft Security Essentials and the error is "access denied error 80070005."

  Apparently an involuntary change of administrative privileges or permissions (Windows XP Pro, SP3) keeps me updated Media Player version 9 to 11 v. and updated virus Security Essentials definitions.
  For Media Player, wmsetup.log reports access denied error 80070005 and UpdSpAPI.log reports access denied for the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding\LowRate registry key. In regedt32, I'm blocked from display HKLM\...\MediaPlayer\Settings and below, and "are allowed to view the current permission settings, but... can make a change." Except that I can't. I can enter the change but get «...» Access is denied"trying to apply them. So this is the first problem that I need help.
  But of course it's more than a registry key and the subkeys, because MSE too is affected and will download but not install virus definitions. WindowsUpdate.log reports: failed to install with error 80070643.
  My user account (it's the only one!) is part of the Administrators group and all that I tried to verify administrative permissions is positive. This is a new issue. No virus/malware, according to MSE, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, MalWarebytes Anti-Malware.

• "Access denied" error XP trying to access an external hard drive used on Windows 7

  Hello

  I used my external hard drive as usual on my XP machine for months, but yesterday I had to use it on another computer running Windows 7. Windows 7 asked something like "do you want to enable access to this hard drive?" and I clicked Yes thinking that it wouldn't cause any problems (showed a green bar that drains into the upper part of the window), but now that I'm trying to use it again on my XP machine I get an access denied error such as permissions changed. I just installed service pack 3, but which did not help.

  Help it would be greatly appreciated the fixing, I'm happy to just continue to use the external drive on my XP machine - use it on other Windows 7 machine was just one time.

  Thank you!

• Get the "Access denied" error when you try to play all video files in another folder on my external hard drive.

  A couple of days, I've had accidentally one of the folders slipped on my hard drive in the folder above him and was presented with the "Access denied" error messages when I tried the two a) reglisser it out & b) open it from the record she had been driven to (which was not a folder of my making that is a jibberish titled folder containing two .vdm files it contains first)

  After receiving advice of a friend, I did a restore from safe mode on the eve of the day when he moved and he did bring him back with all the files and files in the right place, but now I'm getting an access denied for each file, I try to play. Whether Real Player, Windows Media Player etc none will play.

  Just to test, I slipped a .avi file in the folder to see if he was going to play and he did it can be the folder settings, I'm just hoping that all these files are now not corrupted and unplayable as I have some 180 GB of data in this folder in more than 1000 files.

  Any help is very appreciated.

• Computer Dell laptop, they put as administrator with password created now says access denied need to log on as an administrator. But I did not log Administrator icon

  I've had my laptop by dell. on their return, I was signing the administrator with password created. It was working fine until I got the blue screen of death, and then in the mist to restart on the desktop, the windows 7 installation began as I receive it. Well, I got a few documents and photos that I had and they are no longer under one account I created. Also, now I can't print it said access denied need to log on as an administrator. But I did not log Administrator icon more. Help, please!

  I could do this:

  • Reference Dell request the logon credentials.
  • Plan in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. Relying on a single unique administrator account is far too risky!

• 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.

• "Access denied" error when updating driver

  My monitor is an HP w2207h (screen 22 "HD flat).  I get "Access denied" error when you try to manually update the driver by using Device Manager.  When I use the installation of HP or Windows Update utility, I just got a message that an error has occurred.  I've recently updated my NVIDIA driver using windows update (VISTA 64).  On reboot, I get a message asking me to select a driver for my HP flat screen monitor.  When I try to install the driver by using the auto option or by downloading manually from HP, I get an "Access denied" error message.  I am the administrator on the computer.  Can you help me solve this problem?

  It is alittle bit of a lenghty process, but it should help to solve the problem. Follow the steps in this KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315539 to show the devices 'hidden' in Device Manager. Browse the list of drivers installed for the graphics card and remove all drivers that are "grayed out" then uninstall the drivers for your monitor. Restart the system and try to install the driver at that time here.

  What can be produced is installed the drivers can interfere with the currently installed driver and this should allow the system to update the driver correctly.

• Movie Maker fails with general access denied error

  Windows Movie Maker 6 in Windows Vista SP2 32 bit produces a general access denied error and does not run when an attempt is made to run by normal methods. Right click on the shortcut or icon and choosing "Run as Administrator" results in the successful launch of the program.

  I went to the properties of Moviemk.exe and given full control permissions to the single user and also to the administrator, but the file still does not start by double-clicking.

  Does anyone have a solution for this?

  Thank you

  Ron Carruthers

  Hello Ron_C,

  In Windows Vista and Windows 7, the number of items must be run in administrative mode. Even logged on as administrator, you are running as a standard user.

  The Movie Maker 2.6 installer must be run with administrator privileges.

  1. Select the language
  2. click on the download button.
  3. click on "Run" to start the installation.

  I hope this helps.
  Thank you

  I had it installed previously and it worked but he kept asking to open a session. When I tried to connect, I get the error.

  I uninstalled it and re-installed, but still the same. After installation, I can not connect. I get this error message.

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum.

  Let me try and help you with this problem.

  The "Access denied" error '80070005' error Code indicates that you do not have the permissions to change the parental control settings.

  1. Are you logged on to the computer as administrator?
  2. Are you signed in to the Family Safety with ID Parent website?

  First, check the date and time is set correctly.
  Right click on the clock in the system tray. Select adjust Date and time.

  Check and correct the month, day, year, hour, minutes and time zone.
