dbminter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I just got a new computer and am in the process of installing and setting settings. However, I've run into a snag I can't resolve. I can't access Documents And Settings. I can't access it in True Image backups I've made when mounted or explored. I also cannot access several folders in ProgramData like Application Data, Desktop, Documents, Favorites, Start Menu, and Templates. I've already disabled User Account Control which resolved a multitude of my inability to access things, but, I can't seem to figure this one out. But, whenever I try to access these folders, I get the message the folder is not accessible. Access is denied. Also, these folders have a tick next to them with an arrow pointing near 1 o'clock. I used to be able to access these folders under my old XP to Vista upgraded system, but, this is a new system with Vista installed default. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks!

dbminter Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Never mind. I discovered what it was. Has something to do with Junctions, so the files aren't really there where they say they are. Great job, Microsoft! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
