Hello.
I have a partition holding my data and another for the Windows installation, I like to edit the save locations so that common folders (Documents, Music, Videos etc) all get redirected to my data drive, but since I reinstalled W10 it now complains saying "You don't currently have permission to access this folder." but I can click Continue and it'll eventually load the contents, seemingly a bit pointless.
Why is it doing this after I've reinstalled? Of course it has something to do with the folder security but I'm using the same copy of Windows on the same machine, using the same user credentials.
Is there a quick way to remedy this rather than to access each folder individually? And is there a way to avoid this in the future?
Finally changing the save locations after I've got full access again just isng working for some reason. I can select my data drive but the folders locations do not change, what's wrong?
Thanks.
