C:\Documents and Settings\all users\documents DENIED!!!

I am running Windows 7 on my notebook, as the owner and admin.....
I try to access this folder, and I cannot...in fact it appears as a shortcut rather than a folder...i have run antivirus, and malware, found nothing....
tried to change the security....all users has rights to it, the admin does not and cannot be changed....any ideas?

It looks like one of the junction points that provides some backwards compatibility and which shows when unhiding files in Control Panel>Folder Options>View. There is no Documents and Settings folder in Win7, except as a junction point.

In Win7 Documents is under All Users>[User Name]>Documents. Perhaps you should hide Hidden and System Files again to see only the WIn7 folders you need.

greg is right and there are other folders just like it too - you'll get access denied - it is normal

Don't sweat it. As greg mentioned - it's for backwards compatibility in Windows

You should not have even been able to access Documents and Settings...Bah!
