Re: Documents and settings is not accessible. Access is denied.

[Guest R. C. White]

Hi, ITNews.

 

Documents and settings is a folder in WinXP and prior. It does not exist in

Vista, except as a "Junction Point" for the benefit of legacy programs that

have not been updated to work in Vista.

 

In Vista, look in each user's Documents folder. By default, find each one

in:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents

 

Of course, you will not be able to see the folder for any user except

yourself unless you furnish Administrator credentials.

 

And it really is not necessary to cross-post to so many newsgroups.
