Cannot access files and folders after moving to a new user account
My previous user account became corrupt and so I created a new one and moved all of my data to the new user account. But like the title says I can’t access any folders. I can’t even access My Computer or even the Control Panel. It keeps saying I don’t have the appropriate permissions to access these folders and paths. I’ve tried changing ownership and I’ve tried changing permissions to the new user account. So now I have no idea what to do.
Does anyone have any ideas?
When I go into safe mode, I am able to open my files and folders. I've also tried disabling all services and startup programs and still have the problem. I've also installed Malwarebytes and did a complete scan of that.
Update:
So I tried creating a new user account with admin privileges. At first it seemed to work but after I finished transferring all of the data from the old user account I got the same problem and now I can't access and folders. It still says I don't have a appropriate permissions.
