like Wayne, I am very aware of what "real" folders are. I am technically
very capable, and can build a pc from scratch, and load any OS you'd care to
name.
Any answer to this? I am copying a couple files from another computer on my
network. yes, the files exist. I am copying them to a folder on my local
drive. I get the 'denied' message on any and all folders.
any help would be appreciated.
