You see only one drive (C: drive), same here. > by mistake i set all permission for C drive for administrator means for > me to set deny. > so now i can't access my C drive..it say that access is denied. Had you done this in a Standard User account, you would have the Administrator account to fall back on to "undo" this mistake. > i can only use and see desktop now nothing else. > and access denied most of the services.. > so plz help me... Can't you use the same method you used to change the permissions to "deny" to change them back to "Full Control" or "Allow" or whatever it was before? Right click on the drive icon and select "Properties" Click the "security" tab Click the "edit" button Highlight "administrators" check the "allow" box next to the "full control" item - the deny checks should go away. Okay your way out and reboot. |

In case you get "denied access" to the right click "properties" route, you may want to create a standard user account and use that to access this route. Does "Control Panel" appear if you press the "Windows" key and "r" at the same time and type "control" and enter? If so - create a new user account as "Standard User" and log into it to navigate to the settings.

Do you have access to someone who can help you locally? You may need to activate the hidden administrator account or add a standard user by way of the command prompt to fight your way out of this. Do you have the installation disk? |
