    I have a file in a folder that says "you have no permission". This happens to local users, and at the server level. I am not sure why the administrator has no permission. What do I do to fix the file permissions?

    According to your description, I understand you are not able to access a folder.

     

    Can you use administrator account to take the folder’s ownership and grant modify permission? Please logon another administrator user to check whether you can access the folder.

     

    If the problem persists, please perform a clean boot to isolate the virus issue:

     

    a.     Click "Start", go to "Run", and type "msconfig" in the open box to start the System Configuration Utility.

    b.     Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click Disable All (if it is not gray).

    c.     Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".

    d.     Restart your computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the box and click "OK".

     

    If the problem continues, please run "chkdsk /f" for the problematic folder’s drive to fix NTFS permission, it requires a reboot action to process.
