Disk Drive Write Protected Must Remove - Access Denied

Jul 3, 2008

Unfortunatly, a major thunderstorm passed thru my area and my computer was shut down hard and when I brought it up Windows was trashed, missing system files, some noise about disk-drive errors, etc. So I had to install Windows on another drive on the system. I can copy files from anywhere on the drive to the new windows drive except for "my documents" WEHRE OF COURSE Visual Studio Projects, Word documents, IPod, etc, everything, my important stuff is being kept being kept. The message I get is "Access is denied"

When I bring the system up in Safe Mode with networking and look at the security permission tab for that folder I see that my SID Is not there. When I try and add it (my user ID) it validates it and it looks like I can now have access to it, great, but when I click apply the response is "media is write protected" cannot apply permission changes. When I try and copy a file from my new windows drive to the original I get the message Drive is write protected

Try to defrag it from new windows - same message
Try to repair it from new windows - same message

Can anyone tell me where I could find this media write protect switch and where to change it. Windows XP, NTFS all drives, SCSI

Administrator, Password Protected Files / Can't Delete The Admistrator Account

Jul 19, 2005

I don't wish to waste anyone's time, but I haven't seen the answer I'm looking for. My gilrfriends son messed up her Media Center computer and his father used F10 instead of system restore, but the files are still there. To prevent this from occurring again, my girlfriend asked me to password protect the computer. I set myself up as the adminstrator, since I build computers and have the most knowledge, but have only been using XP for the past 6 months. I've read that the account is now hidden and know how to access it from safe mode. When I set it up, it asked me if I wanted to protect the
files and folders, such as My Documents. Stupid me did this. Now even though I have set my girlfriend up with an adminstator account, I can't find a way to share or allow her to access those files, and all her pics are there. I also can't delete the admistrator account I made, even though it says that can be done through her adminstrator account, but there is no option there. I want to do two things. I want to unprotect the files and folders I made private, and I want to delete the adminstrator account I made. F10 restore or system restore won't even do this.

I am trying to write a batch file that would make a specific program a default over Windows Picture and Fax viewer.Reading on other forums, I've input the following into Notepad:ftype jpegfile="C:Program FilesNeroNero 7Nero PhotoSnapPhotoSnap.exe" "%1" When I right-click on any .jpg file after that, under properties, I see that Nero PhotoSnap is now the default program, but when I open the file it opens in Windows Picture and Fax viewer still.What am I doing wrong? Do I need to add registry changes to complete this process?

Write Backup Files On HD Rather Than Floppy?

Apr 17, 2010

after reading ms + others I have a couple questions the insert disk can only be a floppy? that can't be right todays pc's only have cd or dvd or possible usb any way to write the backup .bkf file to a dvd instead of some hd other than the c drive? the writeup talks about formatting the entire c drive before the new windows install, is it not possible to just just reinstall windows, in the old windows folder, leaving the drive intact, so you still have documents and settings, program files, etc, so that when the asr restores the os image, all the old programs etc are still there ready to run?

Restore Registry Files: Copy The Files From The WindowsRepair Folder?

May 23, 2005

The registry on one of my computers is corrupt and if I try to copy the files from the WindowsRepair folder using the windows system repair tool, I'm told the files cannot be found. One possible solution I thought of is using the registry files from my other computer running Windows XP. I don't even know if this is possible, but if it is, how can I transfer the files. I would put them on a CD but the CD drive won't open when the system repair tool is running, and they're too big to fit on a floppy disk, even one at a time (the system and software files are both over 2mb.)

Cannot Copy Files From SD Card

Jan 15, 2008

I'm using an SD card for a Palm Pilot T|X and I'm copying files back and forth frequently using an SD reader, but I'm starting to get a couple of error messages (in XP, not on the actual Palm) while copying files FROM the SD card (not TO the card, I'm copying TO the card just fine). For example, if I copy specific mp3 files, I get this error message- Cannot Copy *filename*: The parameter is incorrect. The weird thing is that only certain mp3 files do this while others copy just fine. The weirder thing is I can play the file in Winamp directly from the card just fine. Yet other messages pop up with different files. Sometimes I get that specific message with another file, but I also get this one--

Cannot copy *filename*: Cannot read from the source file or disk I've noticed that the first one is far more common than the second. I've also noticed that the second can be fixed by safe-removing the SD card and reinserting it (up until now, I haven't been safe-removing, which I now suspect may be the source of the problem). I've also noticed that I can't copy files from my card to my Palm's internal memory using FileZ, but that may be unrelated (also, I know that this isn't a Palm forum anyway; I'm mainly asking about my problem within XP).

Some Files Won't Copy To CDRW

Jun 6, 2006

If I access "My Pictures" on WXP, I can copy pictures to a CD-RW without any problem. If I try to use the "Copy" command to copy a folder such as my Quicken Data files, I receive a message that the disc is not formatted or it may be corrupted. If I use the disk "that may be corrupted" I can copy pictures to it and then erase them. Why won't data files copy? Am I going about it the wrong way?

Explorer Won't Copy Files To DVD+RW?

Jan 4, 2007

When I try to copy files to a DVD+RW it puts them into some kind of temporary files and then tells me it's ready to copy them to the CD. But it won't let me copy them to a DVD, seems to be looking for a CD. Why must I wait for these temporary files to be created. I was once able to start the copying and it would copy them with no delay. Is there some way to bypass this creation of temporary files and just begin the copying immediately?

Very Advanced Program To Copy Files ?

Mar 2, 2006

I have old backup of favorites (bunch of *.lnk files) from Internet Explorer that i had on cd and forgot about it. Then i formated my pc and had to start over collecting them.
Now after year i find out my old favs was on backup cd and i want to merge my old favorites with my current ones, the problem is there is about 100 links in old folder and about 200 links in current folder and many of them lead to same sites, i dont wanna have duplicates and i dont wanna sort them manually.

Is there prog that can copy file from one folder to another, checking if each file from source folder is not present in destination folder (and subfolders) under different name (by checking size or crc or md5 whatever)?

Or prog that can check which of files from source folder (without subfolders) are same as files in destination folder (without subfolders) and mark them to delete or move or smooth
