Here select your username(account) and check the Full Control checkbox. Now go to Security tab, and hit the Edit button. To give complete permission to yourself, right-click the file or folder and select Properties. If you are an administrator and cannot access a folder, this is due to permission error. Then in the new dialog window choose the new owner and then click OK. Next, you need to go to Owner tab and hit the Edit button. Now click the Advanced button(shown in the screenshot below). To change ownership, right-click any file or folder, select Properties, and go to Security tab. Changing Ownershipįirst, lets talk about ownership. But in some cases only the owner can assign the permission for various users, we will also cover how you can change the ownership. By giving all permission to your account, you will be able to get complete control of a folder.
Remember that we are taking about two different things – Permission and Ownership.
This can be done by going to Properties and then navigating to Security tab. The way to fix this error is to give yourself permission to access the file or folder. To enhance security Microsoft has even denied Administrators access to some folders. There are some files and folders that are meant only for Administrators to access, if you are not an administrator then you cannot access it and will instead get Access Denied error. This error is quite common and occurs due to permission issues. If you are getting Access Denied error in Windows 7 then you are not alone.
