strange problems
jraju:
Hi Create one user account as administrator, not standard user and you could access all the files. If some body also works on the computer, and he has given limited permissions to you, then you could not access. If you are the administrator, then there should be some corruption in user profile, which is one of the other major topic like winsxs folder.
Just create one account and log in that account to access

as stated i should be the admisitrator whats this winsxs folder
jraju:
You need not worry about this folder. It is microsoft folder, which will provide a missing file, if it is not found in the store to fix corrupted system protected files. What i suggested is to create another account in the same computer, as administrator. If even, after having the rights of admin, if you are facing some problems, this is because of some corruption of your current user profile which could not be fixed that easily. By creating a account as admin, a separate user folders will be created in c: users and it will create the necessary folders afresh, so that you do not have any problem in accessing. ok

Worth the read and you will see why when SFC is broken and the winsxs is broken a reinstall is the only way to fix that.
