    Local setting folder not accessible


    I am using Windows 10 Home, version 1810. I have administrator privileges and I want to go into the Local settings folder to change my.cnf file, I see this error message: C:\Users\user \Local settings is not accessible. Access is denied. Why am I getting this message and how can I change it?

    :)

    Remote access to my (local) server's folders

    I am running a simple local fileserver. Windows based.

    I would like to access (load, save, modify) what's on this server when I am away on business trips. Laptop -- internet -- router - server

    What is the best way to do this? Setup WebDAV or ftp-server or something else? I would prefer direct access, ie. being able to load/save from an application rather than using ftp as a separate step.

    But what if he tries to access this mapped drive when he is not on the same subnet of his server ?

    Local setting folder not accessible

    Quick Access not searching Pictures folder


    Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

    • I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.


    • Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
    That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

    Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.
