Windows 10: Access is denied on the Smart Menu folder in the Program Data

I'm trying to install an app but it doesn't push through or complete because of the error below. I'm already an admin and have full control on that directory. Even just adding a folder on the smart Menu, will not allow me. I'm on the administrators group and already change the owner of the file but no luck.

"Access denied" on folders after upgrade to Windows 10

I recently upgraded to Win 10 from Win 8.1. I am the only user on the computer and I am an administrator. I am getting an "access denied" error when I try to view several folders. Although there are only a couple I wanted to view, I checked them all to determine
how extensive the problem was. Access is denied to the following folders:

USER\APP DATA\LOCAL\APPLICATION DATA

USER\APP DATA\LOCAL\TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES

USER\APPLICATION DATA

USER\LOCAL SETTINGS

USER\MY DOCUMENTS

USER\NETHOOD

USER\PRINTHOOD

USER\SENDTO

USER\START MENU

USER\TEMPLATES

WINDOWS8_OS\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS

WINDOWS8_OS\PERFLOGS

WINDOWS8_OS\\RECOVERY

WINDOWS8_OS\SYSTEM VOLUME INFORMATION

When I check COMPUTER MANAGEMENT>LOCAL USERS AND GROUPS\USERS, I find that I'm listed as an administrator with permissions. When I right click on any of these folders, and go to Properties, I'm listed as having full control of the folder. Out of curiosity,
I tried denying permission to view the folder, and I got the dreaded "access denied" message again. I've tried various suggestions found in this forum to no avail. (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...t/2aed6083-b986-4423-90bb-986749bc236b?page=2
Windows 8: Take Ownership Of Files & Change Folder Permissions )

I'm almost certain that the solution to this problem does not ln modifying anything via the context menu for each folder because every variation on making changes there has resulted in this error message:

Error Applying Security

An error occurred while applying security information to:

C:\Users\Username\Cookies

Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied.

I'm exasperated. Any good suggestions?

Destination Folder Access Denied

Hi,

There are times that you may run into the issue of being unable to open or access or work with files and folder. The common message that flashes on your computer screen when you try doing so reads: "Access Denied."

This can occur for one or more of the following reasons:

• The folder ownership may have changed.
• You do not have the proper permissions.
• The file may be encrypted.
• The file may be in use.
• The file may be corrupt.
• The user profile may be corrupt.

To resolve this issue, the first step is to run CHKDSK. It detects and fix disk corruption. To run CHKDSK, follow these steps:

• Press Win+X.
• Select Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the window that opens enter your CHKDSK command.
