Can't access C:\Programdata
Hi, I have absolutely no idea where my question belongs. So if this is the wrong category, sorry. Also I am a newbie when it comes to technical computerthings and I am not fluent in english, so if you know the answer please answer me in elementary english
I want to make a new folder in my Start Menu, but I can't access the folder on the C drive where the Start Menu is listed.
When I try this: created new folder on desktop, moving it to Start Menu, and then moving a program into that new folder, it says: Access denied on C:\Programdata\...
But if I search this folder Programdata on my C drive, I can't find this folder.
Also I am logged in with the only account on my PC, as administrator. But when I go to permissions, I see my accountname listed as administrator with all permissions checked. But I also see my accountname listed under Users, and the Useraccount doesn't have full modify permissions. Does this have to do with not seeing the folder Programdata in C?
I can't find an option to show hidden folders.
I have searched this forum, I found some topics about this but they used a lot of short words I didn't understand and no clear answers how to solve this.
I hope somebody can help me. Thanks.
