Recorded TV files

I see that recorded TV files should be located somewhere in Documents and
Settings\All Users, but Vista will mot allow me to see Documents and
Settings. It throws an "Access denied" error. Does anyone know how I fix
this???

Re: Recorded TV files

Documents and Settings is not used in Vista. If you notice, the Documents
and Settings 'folder' is greyed out with a shortcut arrow. It is not a real
folder, but a junction that redirects legacy applications to the new folder
structure in Vista. Vista uses the 'Users' folder.

C:\Users
C:\Users\yourname
C:\Users\Public\Videos - Public has replaced All Users
