    Permissions denied


    I reinstalled win 10 and since then I am not allowed to open folders. Each time I have to release access by opening Properties, etc. I am the administrator and I want to have full access to EVERYTHING. How should I proceed, please?

    Well, thanks to Google Translate, school Latin, and a friend from Portugal I was able to understand enough of the messages to suggest the following:

    1. You don't have permission to the file or file location
    To gain permission to access a file or a location, do as follows.

    1_ Right-click the file or folder and select Properties.
    2_ Under Group or User names, click your name to see the permissions you have.
    3_ Select Edit, where you can have permissions like full control, modify, read & execute, read, write or special permissions. Choose the permissions you need and click Ok.

    If that does not work check to see if your antivirus program is blocking access for some reason and add an exception.

    Also try this, right-click on the file or folder and select Properties. Under the General tab, check the Location, make sure that the file path is correct and accessible.

    If none of that works, post back here and we will see what we can do to help more.

    It seems to me that in this folder several files ( not all) have been corrupted. Even doing the recommended procedures, the file does not open. Maybe I have to delete them.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I discovered that I must go to Proprieties and make every move:

    1_ Right-click the file or folder and select Properties.

    2_ Under Group or User names, click your name to see the permissions you have.

    3_ Select Edit, where you can have permissions like full control, modify, read & execute, read, write or special permissions. Choose the permissions you need and click Ok.

    Than it works
