    Hi,

    yesterday i lost my documents and setting folder. I don't deleted it. Simply when i logged into my pc i got a error:

    Folder C:\Documents and Settings\<ACCOUNT> is not accessible. Access is denied.

    Folder is not invisible or something else.

    I try chckdsk, Malicious Software Removal Tool, Nod, create new account...

    But when I start windows in safe mode everything is ok, folder is there and i can create new account, but in normal mode there is still error.

    Any solutions?

    Thank you very much! and sorry for my English :eek:)

    Best regards, pALI G.

    The folders aren't missing, you just don't have Admin rights to the folders.

    I set this folder full rights for everyone user. And "windows" can't read and write to this folder too. Example, IE can't store cookies and i got exception 'Can not find C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\ folder' , or i can't add icons or files on my desktop etc...

    But in safe mode is everythnig allright.

    Thank you!
