    Unable to Save to Documents


    I can't move, copy or save anything to my Documents folder. I checked the properties of the folder, under serurity it listed only Home Users and WMP Network Svc. My account name is listed in the srcurity tabs of Pictures, Music, etc., and I am able to save, copy and move to those folders. My account is listed in C:/Windows/Users/myname/Documents under the security tab. How do I add my name to the Documents folder in File Explorer? I think that should fix my problem.

    In a not so critical glitch, my computer will not go to sleep using the power settings in the control panel.
     
  3. cannot save document to document file.

    Hi Maxine,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are unable to save documents. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    I would appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.

    • Did you sign in as administrator?
    • Is the issue specific saving the file to this particular folder?
    • What type of file are you trying to save?
    • Did you install any third party security application?
    This issue may arise when the user account that you have logged does not have Administrature previlage.

    I suggest you to follow the steps provided below and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    1) Press Windows + r and type netplwiz, press Enter.

    2) Check for the Administrator account.

    3) Log Off from your computer and Login through Administrator account.

    4) Again press Windows + r and type netplwiz, press Enter.

    5) Select your Microsoft Account and click on Properties button.

    6) Click on Group Membership tab and check on Administrator.

    7) Log off from your computer and try logging in through Microsoft account.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
