Lost permission to create, write, delete files in My Documents

<< < (2/2)

GlenT:
I think that may have been the case. I was running multiple copies of WinZip at the time, doing backups, and one of the machines I was backing up had a disk error which caused the drive to loop infinitely, hanging up WinZip. I found this out later when I went to redo the backups. Perhaps one disk error begat another, by WinZip hanging my machine.

Shane:
Yeah and then the file system simply got messed up when all that happened. Sounds like that is most likly what happened. And when a file system gets damaged you did the best thing to fix it, you recreated it fresh :-)
