March 14, 200719 yr I accidentally moved several scenery files into a folder labeled 89d81c6d185da6202586. I now cannot drag/drop or copy/paste them to there correct folder. I also cannot even open them, although I can open the 89d81c6d185da6202586 folder to see the locked scenery folders. After exhausting my guesses in normal mode I went to Safe Mode (I have Admin status). There I was allowed to select Properties/Security. There I could also set control privileges except for one called Special Permissions. I set the allowed to full control but no luck. The Special Privileges seems to be the problem but I have never seen any info on that. Tried under my id and as Administrator Suggestions??Regards,Dick Boley regards, Dick near Pittsburgh, USA
March 14, 200719 yr Author After much searching and assembling bits of info, I fixed my problem. If somehow you find that a file, or folder, is locked you have to go to Safe Mode. Open the Properties of the item. Using the Security/Owner tab you can take ownership of the item. Then you can apply the Special Permissions that block all access to "normal activities".Regards,Dick Boley regards, Dick near Pittsburgh, USA
