    File Explorer Not allowing access to files even after I am logged in as Administrator


    Alright I am really ticked right now, so I need help. I am the current administrator on my personnel PC, after the recent update, all my files on my file explorer are on the read only phase. I go to save something from Microsoft Word on my computer, all it does is say I don't have the administrative power to do this even though I'm logged in as the ADMINISTRATOR. Someone please help, as this is very irritating. Also, I have tried many different solutions to remove the Read only on all my files, but after I close it, it immediately sets it to read only again.

    :)

    Saves log files ?

    You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

    Download CCcleaner from here...........

    http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

    You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

    [Help] Log File

    Hey all,

    Has anyone used the log file with powershell? I am looking to parse the log file but it is not being friendly. I save the log file as an XML and/or CSV but it doesn't really format the data correctly.

    File Explorer Not allowing access to files even after I am logged in as Administrator

    File Explorer/Quick Access

    I recently started having a problem with File Explorer and Quick Access. When I start my computer, all works fine but then gradually the files as listed in File Explorer and Quick Access start to disappear and soon there are none present. I need to
    restart and again they are there but also again they start to disappear. Has anyone else had this problem and any suggestion to correct? Thanks/
