I'm going to guess that you have Vista. Here is my solution.

it would help if you could tell us the exact error message you're getting

on second thought, you could have probably helped yourself with a 5 second google search.

http://paulstamatiou.com/2007/02/09/how-to-quickie-vista-permissions was the first result for "change file permissions vista"

lol evan said google..very disappointing sir

anyways i am using xp, and everything i move to the desktop now shows as being 0 bytes in size (false) and it says the file or folder is not accessible (false) and access is denied ( )

1/8/2009 3:24:51 PM

windows permissions = fail
windows file sharing = fail

it's no better in XP than vista.

fixed it by creating a new user account and moving everything there

tech talk fails again

What college is Culinary Arts in again?

1/8/2009 6:11:11 PM

no, you did not give us enough information to solve your problem. there's a big difference.

we had it correct. if creating a new user account and moving the files worked, it was almost certainly a permissions issue.

1/8/2009 6:48:21 PM

1/8/2009 9:42:47 PM

stick a mechanically failing hard drive in the freezer
sometimes you can suck a little more life out of it

in this case, there was nothing physically wrong with his hard drive

dnl should stay out of tech talk

Really?

i've actually had it work. no f'in idea how..but it did.

1/8/2009 10:01:05 PM

I know what the freezer trick is

I just don't know why evan fucking explained it

1/8/2009 10:01:33 PM

i can't explain that one either

1/8/2009 10:02:25 PM

no, the freezer trick works sometimes.

i had a drive fail in my laptop about two years ago. I woke up to the sound of grinding platters. I put the drive in a bag and put it in the freezer for about 4 hours, and had enough time to back up my most important stuff to an external HD before it failed for good.

why does it work? *shrug*

edit: oh, word. well, silly evan
