    How to Access Documents and Settings Folder in Vista Home Premium

    I need to access the Documents and Settings Folder in Vista Home Premium. In
    Windows Explorer, I looked at the Properties of this folder by right clicking
    on the folder and selecting Properties. Under the Sharing tab, it says not
    shared. So I clicked Advanced Sharing, then put a check next to Share this
    Folder and then clicked Apply at the bottom. The following error message
    appears: "An error occurred while trying to share Documents and Settings.
    Access is denied. The shared resource was not created at this time." I also
    checked the Security Tab and applied full control to Everyone, System, and
    Administrators. Can anyone tell me how to access this folder? I want to put a
    folder into C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application
    Data/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/5.0/Photo Creations/Special Effects.

    Hello,

    normally, the "Documents and Settings" folder is called "Users" under Windows Vista. Is this folder from an older installation, like from Windows XP?

    In Vista that folder is redirected to %systemdrive%\ProgramData\adobe.
    %systemdrive% is usual C:\

    Thanks for the help. I've got it all figured out now. You are correct, it was
    under the Users folder.

    Thanks for the help. I found the folder I was looking for under C:\Users\All
    Users\Adobe\Photoshop\Elements\5.0\Photo Creations\Special Effects.
