As I was trying to browse got the following message:

Documents and settings is not accessible. Access is denied.

Cannot browse the folder even after I took the ownership.

Any help will be appreciated!
 
Total Comander? If vista is so good why should someone have to buy extra
software to do simple tasks like look for a file?

And how is this relevant to the post you are replying to?
Or are you a TROLL?
 
See above, John.

It is normal if you are using explorer.exe.*Documents and Settings* in
Vista is not folder but junction of folder *Users* (see 'NTFS junction
point - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia'
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point) ) and has attribut
deny list folder/read data - it shouldn't change it.

You don't need browse *Documents and Settings* because everything you
have in *C:\Users*.If you really want explore *Documents and Settings*
use someone good file menager i.e Total Comander running with
administrative previlliges
