    Permissions


    Windows 7 64 bit
    Trying to delete folders on C drive as admin and have full permissions but when trying to delete i receive message that I need permission from system to complete operation. Nothing I have tried has allowed me to delete this folder. I have added another user and gave full permission with same result. Is the system user tied to the base system install of windows and all programs or can i remove all permissions, reboot give permissions to admin and then to system and fix the problem? Any input would be appreciated.

Does anyone have a fix or (at least) a reason for this problem? Every time I try to save a file to my C:, it tells me that I am unable to because I don't have permission. My profile is set up to full Admin... I can't figure this out. HELP!! :) 36231
