    "No Permission" to save on my downloads folder


    So 2 days ago I extraced a Windows 11 ISO package to my downloads folder with DISM++.after that i don't want the extraced files anymore however the 5 folders from the ISO cannot be deleteted, it shows me that i need "COMPUTERNAME/ADMINISTRATORS" permission to even process any steps. i figure out a way to delete some of it however some of the rest cannot be deleted.and also the Dowloads folder the little down arrow one appeared in windows explorer if not clear cannot write any new file, when i download something from chrome and try to save it there, it saids that i have no permission to save

    :)

    You don't have permissions to save in this folder

    Which folder are you trying to save to?

    If you aren't using the true administrator there will be certainly places you can't save to, or even access unless you manually change the security permissions to allow yourself access.

  3. Permissions to save updated files denied

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

    I suggest you to perform the below given steps and check if it resolve the permission issue.

    • Right click on the file and click on Properties.
    • Click on Security, check Owner should be "SYSTEM" in
      Advance tab.
    • Now check the save for C:\Users\<username>
    • Owner should also be "SYSTEM"
    • Check the users you signed into windows as (should be your Microsoft account) should be in the "Permissions entries" list with "Full Contol"
    • If not, Add the user you are logged in as.
    • All the folders and sub-folders below should be "owned" by the user you are logged into windows with
      importantly, have a permissions entry for "full control"
    • Check for all the related folder where you are getting same error, but for some reason that same user is missing a "Permission Entry". Add a "full control" entry for the user and you should be able to save to that folder
      and all sub-folders
    Hope this information helps. Post back with updated issue details for further help.

    Thank you.
