| Re: Documents and settings I'm having the same issues. Were you able to find a cure for the problem. I understand that it's a legacy folder, but I still need access to it and others under the users folder. I'm logged in as Domain Admin and have turned off UAC under the msconfig.

| Re: Documents and Settings as has been said numerous times, the origional Doc and Settings folder is now a legacy folder for compatibility no longer used. check under USERS further down the tree. mikeyhsd@sport.rr.com "Jeff" <Jeff@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:36DDB33F-6403-4BB3-881B-EF8C9C78DB4D@microsoft.com... Why are the permissions set improperly on the Documents and Setting shortcut and sub directories and where do those shortcuts actually go? | Guest

| Re: Documents and Settings Why have you again changed things between different versions of Windows. We'd all just got used to My Documents / My Computer (and amended our core back-office systems/programs with that in mind) etc then you go and change it.. I struggle with why this has changed as i can see no benefit. We all want a new OS but banal elements such as this should surely have been left alone?? Who decides these things and doesn't wonder about the knock-on impact....? I despair guys.. | Guest
