If you go to the folder, you're going to have two accounts you may have to be concerned with and their permissions: 1) Administrator/machine-name/Administrator 2) spud/machine-name/spud Are the two accounts in conflict with each other with their permissions? If you're logged in as *spud* even though you are admin on the machine and spud doesn't have the same permissions as the Admin account on the folder, then there is going to be conflict.
I f you are trying to access Documents and Settings in Vista, it is not a real folder. It is a Junction that is used to redirect legacy programs to Vista's new structure. Documents, Music, etc. -- Paul "spud" wrote: > Hi,I am new to vista.I have set up 2 user accounts(home and work desktops) > both as admin,however I cannot access > docs and settings on the second one.I give myself full permissions but come > against an error each time.thanks. > >
