    File access denied to many files


    Since Upgrading to Windows 10, I am now experiencing problems accessing many files?

    How can I gain access to ALL my files?

    Can this be done in one operation, easily, or is it difficult?

    Step by Step instructions would be greatly appreciated?

    Thanks

    :)

    Files - Folders too sensitive to share!

    I have figured a ' work-around ' changing the security settings of those problem files!

    Thanks
