MY Documents

Expand Post »

Well, I'm tired of pulling my hair out! Here it is ...I've
performed the recover system to correct some problems,
which work out fine..but after that..when I click on the
"My Documents" icon I get the following ....
"c:\documents and settings\owner\my documents is
not accessible...access denied.
I've never put any restriction on "my document" at any
time...any Ideas how to correct the problem?
thanks..billybo:cry:

Re: MY Documents

Yup. XP pro I assume. Common problem, login as administrator (not administrative rights, adminstrator), go to tools, folder options, and take the check out of 'enable simple file sharing'. Click apply, and then the apply to all folders button. Right click on the "My Documents" folder, Properties>Security>Advanced>Owners. Put your username in this list with full control, etc... done.
