Surely, many users of Windows 7 encountered the problem that sometimes when performing some actions with files and folders, the system not only asks for confirmation at the level of administrator rights, but also displays a message that there is no access to the target Windows 7 folder. How correct this situation, and now will be considered. But first, a little theory.
There is no access to the target folder of Windows 7. Why?
The thing is that the developers of the seventh version of the system, as well as all subsequent modifications, tried to protect it from accidental interference by inexperienced users by creating an account for the super administrator, on behalf of which all permissions for conducting operations critical for the system are executed.
That is why sometimes a message may appear stating that the user does not have access to the target Windows 7 folder when copying, moving, deleting or trying to change some important system components. To many, such constant restrictions are, frankly, annoying in earnest. However, they can be circumvented, and quite simply. But more on that later.
Problems copying or moving files
Usually, if the user’s actions are associated not with system components, but, for example, with installing programs, copying and moving some objects, usually just a confirmation message is issued.
You just have to agree, and the process will be completed without problems. The situation is much worse when attempts are made to access or perform some actions with system files and folders. This is where the notification appears that the user does not have access to the target Windows 7 folder. In the simplest case, this is an attempt to copy an object to or from the system partition. To correct the situation, it is logical to assume two solutions: disable the "account" of the super admin and give yourself absolutely all access rights or change system components.
No access to the target folder of Windows 7: what to do?
For the first case, the technique looks quite simple, but first you still have to use administrative rights.
They are needed to start the command console, which is called through cmd in the "Run" menu. Here you need to write a single line: net user Administrator / active: yes (if the action is performed in the English version of Windows, instead of the Russian word, use its corresponding analogue - Administrator), and then press the enter key (Enter).
The second method will take a little longer, but it gives a full guarantee that the message that the user, even if he is an administrator three times, does not have access to the target Windows 7 folder, will not appear again. True, this applies exclusively to single selected objects with which it is supposed to carry out some actions.
Here you need to use the context menu, called by right-clicking on a directory or file, in which the property line is first selected, and then the security tab is used, where you need to select a group or user for which it is supposed to set extended privileges. At the bottom there is a button for additional settings, after clicking on which a new window appears.
In it you need to use the permissions tab (it’s the first), in the type column look at all the lines in which the ban is set, and then click the button for changing permissions. In the new window we find a similar line and again press the button, as in the previous case. After that, just change the permission type by setting the label opposite the full access line.
If you return to the first menu, you will see that in the permissions column, checkmarks are automatically checked next to all types of operations.
Now, when working with the selected object, a message stating that the user does not have access to the Windows 7 target folder will no longer appear. But keep in mind that this applies only to the selected object. If rights are required for another directory, the above operations will have to be performed again. By the way, this method also works if access to removable devices is denied, only in this case you need to use the properties menu of the device itself.
Problems with access on local networks
But that is not all. Problems can arise with "lokalka". Sometimes the system also reports that the user (or group of users) does not have access to the Windows 7 target folder . A local network can simply have such settings when certain restrictions are set not only on the general access to directories on network terminals, but also on their detection in network.
First you need to check the advanced network settings and set the enable options there for all parameters except password access. This sets the visibility of computers on the network and all that is on them.
Next, you need to select a specific folder and simply open shared access to it through the appropriate line in the right-click menu. In addition, in the settings you can specify a group of users or specifically selected users for whom these parameters will be applied.
Instead of a total
As you can see, getting rid of the constantly pop-up message in different situations can be quite simple. Which method to use? It all depends on the specific case. However, the first two techniques for home terminal users work flawlessly. In the case of networks in enterprises, you may need to contact your system administrator to apply some settings. In particular, this concerns the setting of network parameters. But the user can enable shared access to a separate directory (the administrator’s permission is not required for this).
