Windows 7 "works" but can not create folder or rename files

<< < (4/15) > >>

Boggin:
You aren't taking ownership of the whole of C: are you ?

It's normally just used to take control of individual files where you get an Access Denied.

FreeCat:
Yes, I did.  Sorry I did not know.  Still going.

Boggin:
I know it will be time consuming but I would strongly advise that once the Hack has been applied, that you use the other part of the Hack to remove that from C:

FreeCat:
Hi Tom.  OK I am in safe mode now and runing the scan again.  But, I do not understand what you mean by "remove that".  I have not problem following your instructions even if time consuming.

Boggin:
You shouldn't have ownership of C: - that belongs to Trusted Installer and you should use the other part of the Hack to remove Take Ownership.

After you have done the sfc /scannow and depending upon what it reports, follow the instructions to create the hidden Admin account to see if that resolves the creating/renaming of files.
