• 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.

• Get the access denied error after using the rights delegation wizard in Active Directory

  I used the rights delegation wizard to grant permissions to a group in AD and do not always receive either the access message when I try to change anything on an existing object, I can however create new objects without any problem. What can I do to fix this?

  Hello mhipke,

  Your Windows XP question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums, as it deals with Active Directory. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please ask your question in the ITPRO Technet Windows Server Directory Services.

• Windows xp: services do not start the access denied error 5 or error 1068

  Original title: windows xp: service does not start

  win xp: none of my important services like firewall, DHCP or the server does not start.  Everyone says error 5 access denied or error 1068 could not start dependencies... Please help

  Hello

  1. do you have security software installed on the computer?

  Try the methods provided below and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  I suggest that you disable the security software and then try to start the service and check if the problem persists.

  Note:

  Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2:

  You will also need to start long-term services and check if that helps.

  To view service dependencies, click the link below.

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

  Method 3:

  Check if the computer isn't on selective startup.

  How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state

  Configure Windows XP to start normally.

  (a) click Startand then click run.

  (b) type msconfigand click OK.
  The System Configuration utility dialog box appears.

  (c) click on the general tab, click Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services, and then click OK.

• 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.

  Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

• "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!

  Try to start your system from a "Live Linux" CD free.  This CD runs a version of Linux without installing anything on your hard drive.  To create the CD, you download a file ".iso" and feature "Burn Image" of your CD burner to create a bootable CD.  The advantage, that you win, is that Linux is a lot less strict with permissions, so you should be able to access your files and copy them to a USB device.  Some Linux Live CD are:
  Knoppix: <> http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html >
  Ubuntu: <> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/try-ubuntu-before-you-install >
  Ubuntu is actually an installation disc, so be very careful to follow the 'Try Me' instructions so that don't accidentally install you it on your hard drive.

  An another boot CD, you might try is "Hiren".  It is in fact a version of "First environment" of Windows XP, so you could get access to some files that you would otherwise not not when starting on this disc.

• Trying to open the files Windows 3.1 with Vista Home Premium 32 bit

  I am trying to open the files of an old computer running Windows 3.1. the files include MS Publisher, MS Works, encyclopedia Compton, & several other w/3.1 compatible programs. Y at - it a program or an update to Vista that can be used to open these files? What I try to open it & save programs on a version of Windows 3.1 & Vista before using on Vista? I can't open files from MS Office that have been made on a computer running Windows 98 or 2000. Any ideas?

  Windows has many built-in features to make it as compatible as possible with older versions, but Windows 3.1 is really a little old! You can try to use Compatibility Mode, but it goes only up to what Windows 95.

  To run an older program in Ccompatability Mode (as if your PC was using an older operating system):

  1. right click on the program and select 'properties '.

  2. go in the 'Compatibility' tab at the top.

  3. check the first check box and to set up the 'Windows 95 operating system "(which is as old as that).

  4. check all other settings for maximum compatibility (depending on the program that you try to use, some may not be necessary, but you should try each of them to be sure).

  5. click "OK" and try to run the program.

  Note: If you want to try to do this at a program Office (and other Windows programs), this may not work. Please ask for more help with this.

  Your files, you need to just find a compatible program to open with. Please tell us the types of files for more help with this.
