asked on

access denied to administrator on user "My Documents" folder

Greetings,

I have a win 2000 server that we started to use as a domain controller and then got another machine for that and started to backtrack.  There were about 8 domain users set up and their my documents data was stored in a location D:Users\User Name\My Documents, this was set up to automatically create this folder when a new user logged on to the domain.  This is all pretty normal.

Anyway, those folders can only be accessed by the domain user, however now that domain is gone and I cannot get into these folders.  I also cannot change the permissions or security settings for those folders.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Ok that sounds good, i will try it.  However If I recall correctly when I click on the security tab a dialogue comes up to tell me that I can only view the settings.  And I cannot change any settings on that page.  But I will try what you recommend and see if it works.  

Thank you very much.
I'm sorry I took so long to get back on this.  Your answer was exactly correct and worked perfectly.  

Thank you very much.
