    Get access denied error while reset it's path to the default location.

    Original title: Folder Redirection Error

    So I created a data partition and used the folder properties to move my Downloads folder to it. Unfortunately, I moved it to the partition location instead of a folder within the partition. So I tried to move it to a folder within the partition and it said
    the path was invalid. I then tried to reset it to the default location, but it is throwing an "Access Denied" error. Is there any way to get it fixed without rolling back my system to a previous date? Also, the original downloads file has disappeared, but
    I can still download files to it and get to it by clicking the show in folder button or searching for the files in the explorer.

  3. Location is not available. Access is denied.

    I am using Surface Pro 4 and unable to load Outlook and Office 2007 because I am denied access. I keep getting the message:

    Q\: is not accessible. Access is denied.

    Can anyone suggest how to overcome this problem. Many thanks.
