  1. Accidentally denied myself access to a important folder and cannot change back - access denied!


    Today I wanted to block permission for a user on my pc for a file and accidentaly I selected Users that mean my user was there too, I changed every permission to deny and now I cannot restore my permissions to that folder. I have nothing i can do, or? That folder is very important to me and I hope I can restore my access.

    :)

    Denied access to folder

    I have accidentally denied myself access to a folder on my external drive. I intended to secure 1 file and now can't access the whole folder. Windows 8.1 I am the administrator but still get access denied.

    Change Folder Destination access Denied

    Thanks.

    After following the steps suggested, I get the message "Access denied" in command prompt.

    Please advise how to allow permission.

    Denied access to files

    Yeah, that's "fun". Installed Vista on another HDD and it wouldn't let me delete the old one in the other, just access is denied. Changing the owners wasn't enough tho, had to do that, inherit all the rights from parent folder and then give full rights to my self on that folder *Smile Accidentally denied myself access to a important folder and cannot change back - access denied! :)
