To recover access to all folders on your system, especially after encountering issues with copying your user profile, you can try granting full permissions to a specific user or account on your Windows system. The suggested command involving icacls is a powerful tool that can help you adjust permissions. Here's how you can proceed:
- Granting Full Permissions:
- Open Command Prompt as an administrator. Press Win + X and choose Command Prompt (Admin).
- In Command Prompt, use the following command structure:
Code:
plaintext icacls "C:\Windows" /grant :F
- Replace
with the actual username you want to grant access. Remember, the account you specify must exist on your system.
