I have these folders that are locked.

Just me uses this PC I am the Administrator and Jack

How do I UNLOCK these folders? Some programs can't install because the temp file can't be written to a locked folder.

Any help on this?

Thanks.
 
Hi Turkbear


This solution works great !!!!

Stickywulf

Right click the folder and choose "properties".
Click the "security" tab and then click "edit" and then click "add" and then click "advanced"
Click "object types" and then tick "groups" and then click "ok" and then click "find now"
Scroll to the bottom of the list and then highlight "Users" and then click "ok". "ok"
Highlight "users" and tick the boxes for "read" and "write" (and any other permissions you want).
Click "ok" "ok"

Thank you Turkbear so much for pointing me in that direction.
