hello everyone how are you doing
this is mdtech here another quick
tutorial today I'm going to show you
guys how to resolve an issue where if
you're getting an issue when you're
trying to open up a folder on your
computer
and it might say that you don't have
permission to save in this location
this tutorial will hopefully address
that prom pretty quickly so we're going
to start by opening up file explorer so
if you have an icon on your taskbar that
looks like a little file or if you want
to go and search on the Start menu
whichever one you prefer we want to open
up file explorer though nonetheless now
we want to go on the left side to this
PC and you want to left-click on it once
now we want to go underneath our local
disk or whichever location our folder is
having issues saving into so we're going
to just go underneath our local disk
here and now most people would be
underneath the users folder so you want
to double click on that again and now
you should have different account names
your name will not be the same as mine I
have a John Smith folder here so
whatever user name you're having this
issue with you're going to right-click
on it and then you're going to left
click on properties at the bottom of
this context menu
and now you want a left click on the
security tab at the top so we're going
to left on the advanced button right
here
so right across from Rice's owner it
might say system for you guys you want
to click on this to Change button with
the hyperlink ran underneath do you want
to click on it one time
so in this spot down here I want to put
in the actual username so in order to do
that I'm gonna click on the advanced
button right here right down here and
now I'm gonna select the find now on the
right side here so if you pull this
little tab over here you can expand to
see all the valid users on this computer
now like I said you want to go find your
account so we know John Smith is our
actual account here so I'm just gonna
left click on it once here this is
select the account name and then I'm
gonna click on ok so now that we have
our account or login credential name
here we're gonna click on ok you can see
underneath owner now it's been changed
to our account name or username and now
in order to change the owner for all the
subfolders we want to click on this box
next to replace owner on sub containers
and objects so left click in this box
one time so now you want to click on
apply down here might get the swing to
security alert I'm just letting you know
you didn't want permission to read the
contents do you want to replace the
directory permissions with permissions
granting you full control click one yes
and this will take a moment so just be
patient you want to click on OK
and now you want to click on OK again to
get out of that window and we're going
to close out of this dialog window as
well so you want to click on OK
again ok so now that we are back on this
file explorer view we want to go back
into our username right click on it and
the bottom of the context menu again
left click on properties go up to the
security tab and left click on at one
time and then proceed to click on this
advanced button right here down here
so you want to make sure underneath
access full control has been granted for
all of them if it has not been you can
just click on any one of these right
here and then once you click on any of
these items or and there will be a
button that says edit that will appear
if you want a left click on the edit
button once anyone make sure full
control is enabled and if you select
select a print spot there like we did
before if you want underneath advance
you could find now and find the account
that's if you do not have full control
already established at this point so at
this point we want to add right down
here so click on the Add button one time
SWOTs principle by clicking on this
button then we went through just a
moment ago so now you want to click on
the advanced button right down here
click on the find now button right here
and expand this view and this time we're
going to look for something that says
everyone right here and one make sure
this is everyone and then click on OK
and then you want to click on the ok
button right here you want to make sure
all these boxes are checked now so full
control and then you want to click on ok
so now you want to check more this box
this is replaceable trialed object
permission entries with inheritable
permission entries from this object
click mark checkmark in that box click
on apply again you might get a Windows
security pop-up click on yes and then it
will take a moment so just be patient
here
and the window should have closed out
automatically I would recommend closing
out of all your windows restarting your
computer and hopefully this folder and
file access permission error you were
having earlier has been resolved so I
hope this brief tutorial was able to
help you guys out and as always thank
you for watching and I will catch you in
the next tutorial goodbye
