Windows 7 does not use Doccuments and settings.

It uses c:\users\username\.......

Where ..... is My Documents or My music or Desktop etc...
check permissions on the folder you are getting the error on, right click - properties - security tab.  Do you have full control?
He already said the folder. Its C:\documents and settings.  This is a hidden LINK not a folder and by default, Since Vista, no user, even admins, have rights to it.
not necessary to be rude, thanks
