Hello everybody!

 

Question: I'm using windows 7 (64 bit), whenever I try to open any file/folder "You do not have permission to open this file/folder" appears. Is there any way to disable these permissions ?(Read below explanation to understand my question properly)

 

Explanation:

 

Problem started a few years back. I made a guest account. Guest account had not permission to access my "D" Drive (neither read nor write). After some time a problem occurred and I could not log on admin account. I searched here and there but couldn't find any solution so the ultimate solution was re-installation of windows. After windows installations, when I open windows explorer, I was amazed to see that I don't have permission to access D Drive (as it was restricted by admin of previous windows).

I followed following path D>Properties>Security>Continue>Edit>add Admin account

I saw there a garbage s-1-5-21-456384692-283491759-102987398-1000, had access of full D drive & the admin (after windows re-installation) had no access to drive. I tried to delete this garbage but it couldn't be so I added my account and gave full access to the drive.

Now the story begins...

When I gave full access to admin, basically it was access on enter in D drive only. Inside D drive no folder/file was accessible. Now to open any folder I've to repeat this path Folder>Properties>Security>Continue>Edit>add Admin account but this is not end, to open any file inside that folder again File>Properties>Security>Continue>Edit>add Admin account.

This problem is really bothering. There is 20 GB data in D drive and I can't repeat this process for individual file/folder
