Ownership Woes

[Guest]

So, I got Vista Ultimate a few days ago, installed the 64-bit version.
Everything was peachy (still is for the most part,) however, when going to my
old folders with all my music and what not, I am getting the dreaded "Access
Denied."

To cut off the normal line of troubleshooting. I have already reset security
ownership/permissions for the affected folders, and security changes.
However, it seems to be unable to do a mass change to all files within the
folder, despite the applicable check box.

I have already attempted a "setowner /F *.* /R" and icalis (though I may
have made some prompt mistakes on the icalis) setowner also provided an
access denied display.

I can set the permission on each file manually, but I got 4 years of
collected media, and would take a looooong time to go that route.

Any suggestions?

This issue is onpoint to navigating UAC in Vista. Please put it on the
general group., It has nothing to do with setup/installation. Falor if you
click Newsgroups on the toolbar and put vista in search you'll see a gamut
of Vista groups. This group is for Vista Installation problems and your
issue isn't one of them.

Best,
