Cannot access an application folder in Program files
- by GiddyUpHorsey
I recently installed Windows 7 Professional 64bit on a new machine. I installed an application using a ClickOnce installer.
The application runs fine, but I cannot access the application folder it created in c:\Program files (x86). It bombs with access denied. I try to view the properties on the folder and it takes about 1 minute to display (other folders take 1 second). It says I cannot view any information because I'm not the owner. It doesn't say who the current owner is (instead - Unable to display current owner.) but says I can take ownership. When I try it fails again with Access Denied, even though I have administrative permissions.
Why can't I access this folder nor take ownership?
