I have installed W7 Pro and set up two user accounts, I'll call them Admin and Zepe. The problem is that the files I've set up in the Zepe account can't be accessed from the Admin account. The UAC won't let me do anything with those files, i.e. move then or delete them and visa-versa. I have...

I've downloaded Windows 7 off the wevsite, into a folder on my computer. I click on the tool "Win7-HP-Retail..." to "Unload the Box" and it gets to the end and tells me:

I downloaded windows 7 64 bit earlier today from digital river and have spent the last few hours trying to install it. Everytime I try, i get the same error message: We were unable to create or save new files in the folder in which this application is downloaded. Please check the folder...
I was adding something to my hosts file yesterday and in order to do so I removed the read-only from the entire system32 folder and all contents. After restarting the computer it wouldn't boot up so I figured this was the problem. I booting with the Win7 disc, and put read-only on the entire...
Greetings, this is my first post and I hope it is an easy fix for you, it is not for me :(.
I had a problem with Homegroups on my previous installation of Windows 7 that I could only resolve by reinstalling Windows 7 RC Ultimate. My computer has one hard disk that I partitioned to C: and D...
Firstly, many of my files and folders I can't access or change even though I'm administrator. I have the take ownership option but it doesn't always work.
When I manually set my computer to sleep it comes back on in a couple seconds to the login screen with the mouse disabled for 20 seconds or...

I'm locked out of my 1.5TB Maxtor basics USB desktop drive, with the above notification. There's no access at all to the volume, which shows as 0 bytes in size, although the drive is shared and appears to have the required security permissions (Admin and user rights). I have tried it from 2...

Hello
I did try searching for help with this, but I couldnt find it.
The problem that I am having is:
I have installed Windows 7 onto a harddrive and then added the other drives from an older XP installation, I used "Takeownership" on all the drives just after they were added and all was well...
I am trying to replace one file with another and it tells me that I need permission from admin which is me, I am using the admin account, and I have also turned off user account manager and it still tells me I need the right permission. I never had this issue on vista or xp (vista did do the...
I am hoping there is some small chance here. In anticipation for installing Windows 7 on my main drive I installed my new 1TB SATA drive as secondary under XP, formatted it and moved files to it. I had no problems accessing anything so I didn't think there would be any problem when I tried the...

Hi! I'm having trouble sharing my files between two Windows 7 computers, one 32-bit and one 64-bit but both build 7100. I've got the comps connected in a LAN with a Linksys WRT54G ver. 6 router (updated firmware).
The two comps are in the same Homegroup, with the network discovery, file...
Hi,
I just had a quick question.
ok, so when I try to download a file from internet to my computer, I get this message:
C:\Users\Craft\App Data\Local\Temp
and it also says that it could not be saved because you (me) cannot change the contents. (I am the admin on my computer, so why can't...
First- Thank you in advance for any input you have, and sorry if this seems like a re-post, but I can't seem to find anyone who is having quite the same problem or a solution that seems to work.
Basically it is denying me access to brand new files. EX I shot some texture photos today, applied...
I upgraded to the windows RC build 7100 recently. I have been using it successfully. I have installed all my applications and programs successfuly. I have installed all of my hardware peripherals with no problem what so ever. The problem I am having is with media players. When I installed...

After using the 'Rebuilding Media Library' option, going into my AppData -> Local -> Windows -> Media Player folder and clearing it out and ensuring that my folder permissions are correct I still can't get Win7 media player to add the files in my folders. I can add the files manually but WMP...
This isn't a huge issue, but it certainly is an annoying one. I set up a data partition which contains all of my music and common files. I clean installed the 32-bit version of RC 7100 on a separate partition, and the 64-bit version of RC7100 on yet another partition. Vista 64 remains on its own...
I find it ironic that I've encountered a problem that I've never seen before in any WIndows OS, but have encountered in almost every single Unix-based operating system I've ever used. It's a phenominally stupid problem, too.
I can't change the status of some files/folders away from Read Only...
