    Failed to build the list of regular subdirectories


    I am trying to restore my Documents to its default location from one of the volumes and getting this when I hit "Restore Default".

    Failed to build the list of regular subdirectories under "I:\System Volume Information".
    Access is defied.

    It is a permissions thing, but when I check under "Your info", it says "Local account / administrator".
    Why is everything so complicated and confusing under Win10?
