| | How to Access Documents and Settings Folder in Vista Home Premium I need to access the Documents and Settings Folder in Vista Home Premium. In Windows Explorer, I looked at the Properties of this folder by right clicking on the folder and selecting Properties. Under the Sharing tab, it says not shared. So I clicked Advanced Sharing, then put a check next to Share this Folder and then clicked Apply at the bottom. The following error message appears: "An error occurred while trying to share Documents and Settings. Access is denied. The shared resource was not created at this time." I also checked the Security Tab and applied full control to Everyone, System, and Administrators. Can anyone tell me how to access this folder? I want to put a folder into C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/5.0/Photo Creations/Special Effects. |

Is this folder from an older installation, like from Windows XP? Greetings, P.
