  1. How can I gain the permission and access C:\Documents and Settings if I INSIST


    I know this is a junction point to C:\Users

    But, unlike some other junction, this junction denied all direct access.

    fantastically I can access C:\Documents and Settings\Admin actuallyC:\Users\Admin


    So, here is two question below.

    1. How exactly did Microsoft create such an unaccessable junction?For example, like, IF I am going to create another junction unaccessable, just likeC:\Documents and Settings, What steps should I follow? I need some informations.


    2.How can I transfer this junction into accessable, just like junction C:\Users\All Users?

    :)

    Windows 10 Access Denied - Documents and Settings

    Using a Dell PC and a Toshiba laptop.

    Wireless in-home network.

    Changed from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

    If I try to open the files G B-P suggests above--C:\Users\Owner\documents, or using my name instead of 'Owner'--access to Documents files (not MyDocuments) is NOT allowed.

    I have gone through the steps for sharing and adding permissions, but as Administrator and Owner, as I certainly am, I cannot access files that I created myself.

  3. Getting access permission

    Everytime I run a malware scanner, it returns the same PUPs, so I though I would manually check, but I am denied access to \ProgramData\ApplicationData\ and told to fix that in Security. That in turn lists four entities that might get permission. When
    for simplicity, I chose "Everyone' there was an error. The description of the other three leaves me puzzled. Could I get a clear step by step procedure to gain access ? There is only one account (with administrator privileges) and there are no other users.

    How can I gain the permission and access C:\Documents and Settings if I INSIST

    Documents and Settings: Access Denied: Windows 10

    When I attempted to edit the administrators permission, I tried all this and at the end, item 9 I received the message "An error occurred while applying security information to: C:\Documents and Settings Failed to enumerate objects in container. Access is
    denied."

    I am using Windows 10 home and need access to copy my user data such as favorites.
