• Uninstall Ad-Aware problems and who need 'permission' to delete its folder

  I have Windows Vista SP2; Internet Explorer 9, automatic update on everything.  I tried to uninstall lavasoft Ad-Aware since I have Microsoft Security Essentials and should not have 2 antivirus programs face.  Lavasoft using "Uninstall" and then restart, I discovered that nothing was missing.  So I have one of the 2 programs removed manually in Control Panel.  When I tried to removong the other.  a small window pops up telli me "this action is only valid for products that are currently installed"!   Overall the program is STILL in my computer, so I tried to delete the entire folder (must have 1000 files!), but pops up a window saying that I need permission to remove these!  I'm way over my head get "approval" when I do not understand how to explain all the advice and rules;  Looks like gobbledygook!  Can someone walk me through eliminating the files in the folder (can it be done in 1 shot?) and uninstalling this stubborn program?  Right now (03:14) I'm willing to give just straight up, but don't not before giving up hope someone will come again to my rescue!  Thanks for the help!

  I guess that Ad-Aware is always on the list under programs and features?
  And I can assume that you tried to uninstall by clicking and clicking on uninstall?

  If Yes to both...

  Suggestion:
  Download and run this Revo Uninstaller.
  It's a free program.
  It is widely used when 'traditional method' fails to uninstall.

• Windows 7 tells me I need permission from remove me a file

  I'm trying to remove the Program Files folder and the Windows folder from a hard disk which I have not started.  I do this from a Windows 7 machine.  The I'm trying to delete files come from the hdd to boot a Vista where I want to delete all the folders and copy backup it from a I have before inserting the disc newly restored in the Vista machine.  Win7 denies my request to delete these files.  I took possession of containers under folders and files.  I changed the permissions so that I have total control.  I even changed owner to anyone and has kept everyone full control.  Even after doing all this Win7 still tells me:

  You need permission to perform this action
  You need permission to everyone to make changes to this file
  Program Files
  Creation date: 11/02/2006-11:18

  And gives me the option to retry or cancel

  It is extremely frustrating and probably a huge bug in Windows.  If I try again I get just repeated the same message.

  I am an administrator still this OS will not let me run!

  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I need to keep intact boot sector - everything that I want to do is to copy a backup of my system files on this drive so that I can start my computer Vista again.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  Here you mentioned the hard drive and if you think it's the hard drive, then my first suggestion would be to show the hidden files and folders.

  Here's how to display the hidden files and folders.

  a. open the Options folder by clicking on the button start the picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.

  b. click on the view tab.

  c. under Advanced settings, click Show files, folders and drives, and then click OK.

  See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Show-hidden-files

  Now, perform the following steps:

  Step 1:

  Delete files using Disk Cleanup

  Step 2:

  a. click windows orb
  b. type cmd in the search box
  c. right-click on cmd in the results menu and click on run as administrator
  d. command windows opens, must be in the directory c:\windows\system32
  e. go to c:\ do what type cd... until you reach c:\
  f. navigate to the directory where the file to be deleted. example c:\windows.old\users
  g. type rd/s (directory name)
  h. will get quickly delete y/n type y and press enter

  After successful removal, you can check the windows Explorer and see that the file is missing.

  Example, I have a directory on my c drive named windows.old, under windows.old that I have a user directory and then several subdirectories, 1 directory happens to be named bill. For some reason any windows can not find this place and will not delete the folder. I then who follow the previous steps and remove this directory.

• need to remove the folder but I have permission of PC itself am admin?

  Seems simple, I want to delete my folder of photos to icloud on my PC win 7.  I (now 2 admin users I am the only user on this computer, but when I try to remove it, the PC said permission to remove this admin (who I am and connected as) must) so once again on 'continue' and that's the problem it indicates

  "you need the authorization of the name of my admin - PC/PC account name to make this change" i.e.

  APPLE-PC\APPLE to make changes to this file.  with the help of apple instead of my real name

  I went into the possession of changed properties which only gives me one option which is the admin of APPLE and then just APPLE, which I tried both.  I also went in the shared all added files changed / all the post in win 7 told me to.  Entered in the property and changed again added to get the same response from this folder.

  then try again.

  I even created another admin user and here he repeats the same thing.

  I can remove most of the things on my pc etc but I was wondering if there is a bug in icloud apple/windows program or what.  I got a ton of pictures that repeat and I want to clean my pc.

  Thank you

  I can remove most of the things on my pc etc but I was wondering if there is a bug in icloud apple/windows program or what.  I got a ton of pictures that repeat and I want to clean my pc.

  I suspect that there is some method built into the apple/windows/icloud interface the program ask to use delete. Punching through in other ways might disrupt some catalogue. Here are two methods that you can use to do it anyway:

  • Restart the computer using safe mode, and then rename the Junk folder to something else.
  • Keep pressing F8 when starting so that you can start the computer in Repair Mode, and then open a command prompt. Now, type these commands and press ENTER after each:
    C:
    CD \users\apple
    "My apple account" ren "my apple folder.unwanted.
    (of course, you must use real names)

  Now reboot normally and check if things still work as they should. If they do then you can delete the folder after a few days, using one of the methods mentioned above. In Repair Mode, the command would be rd /s /q 'my Apple folder.unwanted'. Note that the folder will be permanently deleted. He won't go into the trash. You have a copy of current backup?

• Need S-1-5-21 etc permission to remove a specific folder on a hard disk external.

  The first file contains the following files:

  admparse.dll
  Advpack.dll
  HTML. IEC
  ie4uinit.exe
  ieakui.dll
  ieframe.dll
  jsdbgui.dll

• Destination folder access denied. You need permission to perform this action.

  OK, I'm absolutely sick freaking that. I am logged on as administrator, and there are some files that I can't remove everything. I get the message "Destination folder access denied you need permission to perform this action."

  Why the hell do I need permission? I am an administrator and it's MY computer!

  I tried to fix this for hours now, searching through the forums looking for answers, trying all the things that people give to think (as the change of ownership of the files - didn't work).

  I tried to turn of UAC, but it tells me that I have to restart, which I do, but then when the computer turns UAC turns on again!

  Gaaaah! It's driving me crazy - I'm trying to delete files and folders that I need not, they take up valuable space and they have nothing to do with the functioning of the system.

  Now I know why everyone hates on Vista.

  A lot of files and folders in Vista are unable even to administrators (unlike was the case with XP).  To remove a file, you need all rights to him and maybe same property (and these can be inherited from parent folders or their parent folders is not just a simple matter to change the permissions of the file - unless you remove the inheritance rights in the section advanced as well).  It has nothing to do with YOUR computer, it has to do with the protection of the system of files to be modified, moved, deleted or otherwise modified by people who do not really know what they're doing and causing significant damage. There are places called junction pointshttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb968829 (VS.85) .aspx which should NOT be accessed by anyone for any reason for example.  Now there are places in your own profile which you denied access.  That's how it works on Vista (and I don't think it's different in Windows 7).

  If you think you should have access to delete the file and know that it will cause no harm, so some information here about obtaining permissions (you want full rights for yourself) and appropriate (not always required but sometimes useful).  Being the owner does not necessarily give you the permissions of all rights - sometimes, you need to do both.  Don't forget to go to the Advanced section to check the rights listed there as well as on the home page - they can block you all also if you don't fix them as well.

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To solve this problem with folders, folders takeownership or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html. To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  ====================================================================================================================

  If this does not work, try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when the normal functions to remove Vista not work properly - but it helps if troubleshoot you permission first (even those programs may not work to override only).

  I hope this helps.

• "You need give the administrator permission to move this folder.

  So I recently downloaded a video file, which is currently sitting in my downloads folder. No matter when I try to move it to my documents, it says that I have to give the administrator permission to move the folder. Then it gives me the opportunity to continue, to jump or cancellation. When I hit continue, it will give me a pop-up that says that Windows needs my permission to run the program. I give him my permission, and then another pop up window will go up tells me access denied. If I hit try again, he fails again.

  My account is the only account on this computer and I am also the Director, because there was no way for me to not be, and he also says that I am when I look at my account information. But whenever I try to give him permission to continue, it tells me that I need administrator permission to continue.

  Also, this isn't the first time that I denied access to my own files even as administrator, after I tried to give the administrator permission to access. Is there something special I need to do as an administrator to actually have the ability to give permission?

  This is probably a permissions or ownership issue sust.  Right-click on the folder and click Properties and add you as a user authorized in its own right.  Go to advanced and do the same thing on this scren as well.  Then go into the property tab and take over the case.  If this does not work, you may need to do the same for the parent folder as well (and maybe it's the parent).  Finally, you should be able to access and move the folder.

  Here are a few guidelines and procedures dealing with permissions and ownership that can help:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself).

• "You need give the administrator permission to delete this folder?"

  Windows 7. My PC user account shows I am administrator, but it is impossible to delete some files.  Get the message: "' you need give the administrator permission to delete this folder.

  Yes, it is in the free version.  It is in the 'Tools' tab to the right part of the screen.  For best results, you should also get "rkill" (you should never download from bleepingcomputer.com - and ABSOLUTELY no PART ELSEWHERE), which is good to put an end to all background processes that prevent you to delete unwanted files and folders.

• How to remove a folder from program files in the C drive?

  I tried to remove CA my computer for several days. I just discovered how to manually remove programs. However, will not remove the file CA in my program files. I give permission, and then he said please try again. I don't use this program because of the large amount of questions and he won't let me download an anti-virus up-to-date program. Help, please.

  You must uninstall the programs start / Control Panel / programs and features - and then select the program you want to remove, right-click on it and click on uninstall or delete - otherwise the pieces of the program stay in various places throughout the operating system and in the register - it cause you problems later and taking space without good reason.

  If you really want to remove this folder to appropriate it.

  To resolve this problem with the record of CA, appropriating the folder (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for the folders and files that can change permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can now delete the files and folders.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html... If ownership doesn't work, someone has placed a deny access to all user somewhere safe - you have to find that entry and delete it and then you will be able to delete the files and folders.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Cannot remove a folder. Error: Required the approval of the system changes to the folder and the files

  I recently encountered a problem with a file of unknown origin and content. When I try to delete files / folder I get a message that I need permission from the system to change the files or folders. I am the only user on my laptop and have always had administrator rights to make the changes necessary and desired.

  Hello

  1 are there any changes or updates made on the computer?

  2. What is the full and exact error message?

  Method 1:

  I suggest you run Microsoft Safety Scanner for any malware or spyware infection and check if it helps.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: the data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

• When I try to delete some folders, an error message appears saying 'you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.

  original title: require authorization of the SYSTEM

  I decided to do a clean install of the latest Windows 7 RC yesterday and today crossed and have started to remove some programs on a separate hard drive so I could reinstall their own.  However when I try to delete some folders, an error message appears saying 'you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.  I am using an administrator account, but I can't just simply delete the file.  I tried going to and change the owner to my account or administrators, close it, change the security permissions to allow me to have full control, and then I can finally remove it.  The problem is, I have to do for all the files one by one in the folder, and I wonder if there is an easier way to go about this, or if I can access the user of this SYSTEM and just delete them all from there.  Thanks for the help.

  Hello

  Not trying to resurrect the old discussions, but I'll answer anyway because this thread came on top of the list of search results when I searched for "you need permission to the SYSTEM; I hope this will help everyone.

  Note: here, "the record" as a subject refers to the folder that you want to remove.

  Step 1: Go to the built-in Administrator account, you can do so by following these steps:
  a. go to control panel > system and security > administrative tools
  b. on the left panel, go to local users and groups > users. You should now see a list of users on your computer
  c. right click on the administrator account that appears in the list and select Properties
  d. uncheck "account is disabled" and confirm by pressing OK

  Step 2: Connect to your newly activated administrator account

  Step 3: Now, we start to configure the security settings that will allow you to remove this folder which was (perhaps) held by the SYSTEM:
  I'm going to make the assumption that you want to remove a folder and all its subfolders along
  a. right click on the folder
  b. go to the security on the top tab
  c. click on the Advanced button which is at the bottom

  : Step 4 the first part to configure security settings to set the owner of the folder:
  a. go to the owner on the top tab
  b. click the button change located downstairs
  c. There should be a list of accounts to choose to change the property, this is located under the label "of a change in ownership:'"
  (d) the entry 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' should be there; If this isn't the case, then add it to the list:
  -Click on the button "other users or groups...". "who's down
  -Under the label "enter the object name to select (examples):', there should be a text field you can type into it;" type in "Administrator" (without the quotes of course)
  -Click on the "Check names" button which is located on the right. 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' should now be there _For itself_; Well, if not, then you must remove the line that does not represent the administrator account that you are currently
  -Confirm by pressing OK; It will now appear on the list of accounts, you can choose from
  e. now, select 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' from this list
  f. check 'Replace the owner of subcontainers and objects' to propagate our change
  g. press OK to confirm. a message should now pop-up window, which says to re - open the properties. Do by pressing all the buttons OK see you

  Step 5: now that we have the owner of the folder, we still not done. There is one crucial step left which is to remove permissions inheritable:
  a. Repeat step 3 to learn to re - open properties and get to "Advanced security settings"
  b. go to the permissions on the top tab
  c. click on the button "Change permissions" which is down
  d. at the bottom, there should be 2 check boxes:
  -' Include the permissions that can be inherited from the parent to this object': deselect this. When you do so, you will get a warning on the parameters of parent is not not able to spread. Select 'Add '.
  -' Replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable this object': check this
  e. press OK to confirm. Windows will warn you this time; Click OK
  f. reconfirm by pressing OK; now, you should get to properties again

  Now, you shouldn't have all the warnings about the SYSTEM do give you permission as he attempted to perform actions on this issue.
  All the boxes to change the permissions on the accounts (properties > Security > Edit) must now be enabled, and you can tinker around with it.

• Need permission to administrators when logged in as an administrator to delete a file in Windows 8

  I have a laptop Windows 8, which I shared with my daughter. We had separate user accounts. Mine was an administrator account, hers was not the case. I recently bought him his own laptop and tried to delete his account on my laptop. I did it by going to user accounts in Control Panel and remove it. The delete process has worked but left his user account folder (c:\users\account_name). I tried to remove it, but I was told that I needed permission from administrators to exercise this function, even if mine was an administrator account. I followed the instructions of kb2623670 and that did not help. I noticed that the file was marked read-only. When I tried to deselect, told me I need administrator privileges to change the attribute. I clicked on OK to confirm and received a message saying:

  An error occurred applying attributes to the file:

  \AppData\Roaming\...\Librariesaccount_nameC:\Users\

  Access is denied.

  I then logged in as an administrator and tried to delete the file and got the same result. On the Security tab, I noticed that administrator and administrators (Group) have been listed separately, and this one was the owner of the folder. Then, I clicked on the Advanced button and changed the owner of the Administrators group on the administrator account just to confirm that this was not the issue. I tried to delete that file, and again did not. Then I navigated to the subfolder of low level libraries and tried to change the read-only attribute. I got the same error. I then clicked on the Security tab and saw 'you must have read permissions to view the properties of this object. Click Advanced to continue. "I clicked on the button advanced and got"you must have read permissions to view the properties of this object. Click on continue to retry the operation with administrative permissions. "I click on the button continue and got"you don't have permission to view the security properties of this object, even as an administrator. To try to take possession of the object, which includes permission to view its properties, click on change above. "There is no change button. There are only 3 tabs: permissions (which displays the message that I have just mentioned), sharing and effective access (which contains the same message on the permissions tab). I went to the user_name folder and in the advanced security properties selected the option "replace all entries authorization child object with entries permissions inheritable of this object." When I clicked on apply and then Yes on the confirmation message after, I got an error that says "could not enumerate the objects in the container. Access is denied. »

  Is it possible to remove this folder, or even as an administrator there are things we can not do in Windows 8?

  Hello

  Method 3: I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software. The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Warning: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

• File destination Access Denied you need permission to perform this action

  I am trying to create a new folder on my desktop in windows 8 & remove some old files & shortcuts on the desktop, but I get the message Destination appears next folder Access Denied you need permission to perform this action.

  I am the owner of the laptop & my account says: I am an administrator.
