Cannot move folders into other folders because of restrictions?

Try this, under programs right click windows explorer and select run as administrator. Then try to move the folders. Hope this helps

I tried this and this still does not work :(
Any other ideas?

Go to controlpanel>User accounts>click Turnuser account control on or off>uncheck the box use user account control( UAC) to help protect your computer.

Press OK.

Try this,

Boot your computer into safe mode. go to the files that you are trying to copy/move select them all and right click, go to properties>security>advanced>owner>edit and add your account. Then try to move them. Preferably in safe mode to ensure that no other program is using it.
