Folder locked

[Itz_Me!!!]

There is a big folder in my PC which I shared on LAN and now its not permitting me to make any changes such as copy, delete, move etc. Although im able to access it.

I have tried many boot deleters and unlockers but no success.
Suggestions plz...

What error do you get when you try to delete / move it ..??? Try disabling sharing of the folder first .. ?

Bool in safe mode and than try it. Also remove the folder from sharing, and than try it.

I have shared and unshared the folder so many times and tried in safe mode also but nothing worked.
It says
"Cannot delete folder: Access Denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write protected
and that the file is not currently in use."

heres what u do..

1. Goto folder options, under View->Advance Settings the last option would be "Use Simple File Sharing" .. uncheck this box and apply the changes.

2. Right Click on the folder and select Properties->Security.

3. Goto Advance->Owner and select your account from the list, check the box on the bottom where it says "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects"

4. Apply the changes and hit OK.

5. Now once again right Click on the folder and select Properties->Security.
Under "Group or usernames" select your Account.
Under "Permission for ____" check all the boxes under Allow.

6. Apply the changes and hit OK.


that should do it
