I've just upgraded to Vista and, at first glance, am very pleased save for a
few niggles. Most importantly, however, Outlook will no longer archive
folders because, it says, I don't have the permission required. Needless to
say I cannot access the archive folder either which is very bad news. Nor do
I, apparently, have access to the various folders along the path to check the
properties of the archive.pst itself.

Any ideas?

Kind regards
Bill

If your account has admin rights, take ownership of the folder and then set
your security rights

I am the sole PC user and have all rights necessary. Or at least I had with
Windows XP prior to upgrading to Vista last week. Taking ownership as you
suggest is a non-starter because I'm unable to access the folder - due, you
guessed it, because I don't have the required permission!

Further help would be greatly appreciated.

Go into safe mode (Reboot + F8 Key after the Dell Screen (or whatever system
you have) but before vista loads) and select the file you want..

Properties > Security Tab > Advanced > Owner > set yourself as owner.

I had the same problem with another file and it was as easy as going into
safe mode and fixing it that way.

Sorry, Knewt-Ccob, I've only just seen your post. I also see that
NeedsHelpASAP has provided a work-around with which I agree. In my case,
however, I was eventually able to access the correct folder and change
ownership.

Regards
Bill
