    OneDrive -- No access permissions to the item


    The Desktop folder is sync'd to OneDrive but I've noticed that there are a bunch of desktop shortcuts that not included.

    These shortcuts have been added to C:\Users\Public\Desktop during the install and include shortcuts for MS Edge, Chrome, etc. etc.

    So I tried to create a link or junction to this directory to sync to OneDrive:

    mklink /j "%UserProfile%\OneDrive\Public Desktop" "C:\Users\Public\Desktop"

    which worked just fine.

    However, in OneDrive I now have a number of sync errors, all of which are:

    Microsoft Edge.lnk
    No access permissions to the item.
    It appears that you do not have access permissions to the item. Ensure that you have the right permissions to allow the the item to sync.

    I did try to give each shortcut read access to my UID via the Properties -> Security but that didn't work.

    How can I fix this?

    TIA...

    :)

    cannot access file/or permissions

    I have a file i need to run on Windows 7 Home Premium. I get the error message saying "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

    So I right click and choose Properties to access the permissions but I cannot. In the Security tab I get a message saying, " You do not have permission to view or edit this objects permission settings.".

    Next I boot into the Windows 7 Hidden Administrator Mode - and even with this I get all the same error messages.

    Please help me as I really need to run This file.

    OneDrive folder permissions - Fix


    Found the problem. OneDrive -- No access permissions to the item :)

    While you are still listed as the owner of each subfolder in the OneDrive folder, some subfolders no longer have inherited permissions enabled.

    If you Enable inheritance and OK for each affected subfolder in the OneDrive folder, it will no longer have any access issues or UAC prompts afterwards.

    OneDrive -- No access permissions to the item

    Windows 10 - OneDrive

    Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

    If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.
