Hey there,
Make certain to play and ran through the hidden folder mentioned in the title. There is one account of course on our Surface, full administrator access and I was wondering what it is and why I can't access it. When I try to access the folder, I get the following:
"You don't have currently not allowed access to this folder. Click on continue permanent access to this folder. »
Then, like a good boy, I click on continue and...
"You have been denied permission to access this folder."
But wait... I can click on a link hyper to the Security tab, Ok...
"You must have read permissions to view the properties of this object. Click Advanced to continue. »
Don't panic!
"You must have read permissions to view the properties of this object. Click on continue retrying with administrative permissions. »
Okey Dokey!
Takes me of course to features advanced security where it is said the owner of the folder is "Trusted Installer" and "directors" shows correctly with the settings read and execute access to this folder, subfolders and files.
Can someone please clarify what this file is for and why there is a folder on my RT Surface that I can't access?
Thanks for reading,
To do this >
Open CMD as mentioned above write this >
TAKEOWN /F "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" r d Y
(Whit quote... better to copy paste... only he)
that way, you'll see hundreds >
Success: the file (or folder): XXX blah blah blah
and wait, it stops.
then again type this >
ICACLS "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" / grant administrators: F/t
You may see nothing... a moment... then... .boooooom :D
After that, you will see something like: the files successfully treated XXXXX; Treatment failure 0 files
If its exactly like this "failed processing 0 files" then your done good... and go have fun
Thanks to Lydia Rohit... I just corrected the mistake on his part (cuz paths of Pentecost of spaces need quotes)
(After having done all that, you cannot get change permissions... fix too copy the file in the other place, modify, delete the first file and then add your file modified in the folder)

Empty and closed iTunes library iTunes Library.itl file.
Every time I open iTunes, my library is empty.
I ve already tried to open iTunes, all holding the SHIFT key, but not matter which library I get, iTunes opens always empty.
After trying that, I started to look around for other ways to recover from my library. People told me to uncheck the 'read only' to my iTunes folder. I did, but I received a message stating that the iTunes Library.itl file was locked and I had no access. I clicked on 'ignore' and uncheck the rest of the files and folders have given no problem.
I then examined the .itl file, the read-only box was not checked, to my surprise. However, the option of archiving, a. But because the file is locked, I couldn't change a thing.
After that, I read about "unlocker", I downloaded then, but that has not changed a thing either.
Also, when I checked the iTunes folder earlier, the read-only option was checked again!
I hope someone here can solve my problem, because I have really no idea how solve it on my own now.
Thanks in advance!For assistance with iTunes, contact Apple technical support via their website.

Original title: iTunes
I have just updated from XP to 7. I downloaded Windows Easy Transfer, but it wouldn't work if I copied all my files on my external drive myself.
Once Windows 7 had loaded, I started to transfer them to my computer.
I tried just down load iTunes 10.1.1 from the internet, and everything seemed to go ok.
But iTunes is not working and I get the following message "the library iTune .itl file is locked. "On a locked disk or youdo not write permissionfor this file."
I saw this message on iTunes support and it is said that the 'My music' folder is located in the default location in Windows XP.
Does that mean I lost my music and what should I do to be able to access/download the iTunes player.
I have songs on different drives so I have quite lost music. I am simply unable to play my iTunes library because I can't access the drive.
Thank you.
P.s. I'm not very good with computers.
Hello

Hello, just set up a new computer laptop and wanted to reinstall CS5 on it. The system is El capitan. When I finished the download and try to install I got a message saying the installation file is damage and saying it s better power eject it. I tried to download several times and in different places. That is wrong. Does´NT CS5 run on El Capitan? Or what else? Thank you.
CS6 and previous programs have not been tested and will not be updated to run on Mac El Capitan
-which means you are trying to use CS6 and earlier at YOUR risk of having problems
-You can get CS6 and previous programs to install and run, or you can not (some do, some don't)
-Java https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/dreamweaver-java-se-6-runtime.html can help
Install CS5 on Mac 10.11 https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2003455 can help (also for others than CS5)

My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?
You can try to search for *.eml, but if the disk has been formatted first, they will not be there. The files are also hidden, so make sure that you enable the display of hidden files and folders under control panel | Folder options | View. You can also check with those who 'reloaded' of Windows to see if they have backed up your data first.
See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information on the message to save the data.
