I cant copy/paste/cut files/folders in my harddisk!!!!!

I'm having the same problem: Can't copy files from external HDD to internal.

OT. - Using capital letters is considered shouting on the Internet.

All caps is akin to shouting in an online forum setting. Would you like it if someone ran into an auto shop screaming at the top of their lungs that they have a cracked windshield and it is very urgent because it has happened before and they had to replace it? Just want to get that into perspective.

Alright, so can you clarify your problem (in proper English please)? You cannot copy, cut, or paste ANY file on your computer?

Alright. Lets open an Elevated Command Prompt and type:

Code:

sfc /scannow

~Lordbob

it replies "you must be an administrator running a console

session in order to use the sfc utility." shall i turn of "uac"?
