    Insufficient permissions issue


    Hi,


    I am having an issue with my computer. Whenever I try and move something on my desktop, save something, print to PDF or download I get an error "insufficient permissions". I am the administrator and the only person to use my computer, but it asks for administrator permission. Why is this happening? Can someone please assist me in fixing this...


    Thank you in advance for your quick answer.

    :)

    Permission issue

    Presumably because TrustedInstaller is the owner (hence you need its permission), suggesting that img3.jpg was installed by Windows at some time.

    Presumably that also means it can be uninstalled. How did you get it in the first place? Where is it located?

    If you really want to delete it yourself, then taking ownership would seem a logical first step.

    Insufficient permissions issue

    I can't open pictures. Insufficient permission

    To take ownership of a file or folder, follow these steps:

    • Right click flash drive.
    • Click Properties.
    • Tap or click the Security tab.
    • Click Edit tab.
    • Add (user name you want to assign).
    • Select Full permission. If issue still persist, change the ownership in the permission.

    Let us know the result.
