Hello!

I hope someone can help me with this. I have a big
problem. I have a partition on my Harddisk. Couple of
hours ago I reorganize some data on my disk. I created a
new folder and wanted to move my data from other folders
to this new one. When I did that the problems started when
I tried to access data (I can see the contents, but I
cannot access none of the files). I tried some solutions:
Tried to change the attributes for the whole folder (The
new default is read-only), but when i access that folder
again, it changed back to read-only. I tried every sub-
folder, but I still got the same problem. I tried another
solution: Made a new user account with admin rights and
change the log-on. But the problems is still there. What
should I do?
 
Is this of assistance to you?
