I can access a file in one profile, but not in the other
As part of my on-going problems in setting up a new profile, I have encountered one that I do not understand:
When I started the new admin profile, there were some problems with both Firefox and Thunderbird. I am concentrating on Fx, where I found that the configuration file that tells Fx which Fx profile to use was quite wrong. I fixed that problem by copying from my current default profile to the new one the correct information.
That fixed some file access problems, but the profiles.ini file cannot be accessed in the new profile, so I have no way of editing it. I have checked the Security and Details tabs of the file's property sheet in both the default and new Windows profile; they are identical.
In both cases, the General tab for both shows that the file opens in Notepad, which it does in the default, but all I get in the new profile is `access denied.'
What can I do to fix this?
