Why some Windows folder have a lock and how can I disable it
We have noticed that a series of folders within our Windows 7 OS, has a "lock" on its names and most of them doesn't permit us to access it. However, under c:\users\Username, the folders "Desktop", "AppData" does permit us.

Understood. But like I stated above, some files with the lock let's me access it, the other (which are the majority doesn't).
I checked the access and the user does has access and the ownership is the same user and yet I can;t access it.
