Are you using a user account with administrator privileges?

I can access the folder without any issues.

If you can't see the folder, you need to go to Tools/Folder Options/View and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files." Also, under "Hidden files and folders" check "Show hidden files, folders, and drives."
