Vista - You need permission to perform this action !!!!

The permissions look good - they give you, administrators, and the system
full control over the folder and any subfolder and files that are created
inside the folder.

Maybe the problem is with the SOURCE files and not the destination? Have you
tried copying a file from the desktop to this location?

As you said, when I check the permission settings, I have full rights on
everything.

Yes, I have try to copy a file from an other directory and paste it ... same
message.
Strange ...
An other example is if I try to install "flash player".
The program decompress the files he need and when he begin to install the
installer said that he cannot find some files from the directory where he has
decompress everything !!

Again, I can "paste" in all the directories "USERS" but not his one (I
haven't try all ...).

regards

Thanks

Are you saying you are unable to paste ANY file into EACH of the folders
above? Did you try all the folders I listed?

I'm a bit confused about the \Me.domainName\ part of the path? Is this
the normal naming convention in Vista, are you on a domain? I ask
because the only time you would end up with folders of that name under
Win2k was if something had gone wrong with the loading of the profile.
Usually the profile would be called something like

\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Mozilla

YES !

NO ! "You need permission ...". UAC is enabled and I answer "Yes" when
asking to continue ans give "administrator privileges" ...

> >> Users\Me.domainName\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\

NO ! Idem

> >> Users\Me.domainName\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles

NO ! Idem

> Are you saying you are unable to paste ANY file
I create a new file to test again.

See above for answers

Yes I'm on a domain, and I don"t know if it is the "normal naming" ... I
guess Yes !
Local profile is for instance "Users\MyUserName" and domain profile
"Users\MyUserName.DomainName".
I had always that in Vista.

Thanks
