He,
I've got my own access denied issue. I recently downloaded a file for work
from a consultant's FTP site. Upon initiating the DL i was prompted as to
whether or not i wanted to save the file in the desktop folder. I figured
this would be fine and accepted. Unfortunately, the file ended up in the
c:\users\all users\desktop folder. All attempts to gain access to this
folder have failed, i've tried taking ownership, logging in as the Built-in
Admin, safe mode, trying to change permissions via the security tab while
logged in as the buil-in etc. nothing seems to work. Am i going to have to
live with keeping this data (about 1/2gb) until the next format, whenever
that may be? Is there any way to gain access to this folder, script etc.
Thanks in advance.
