I placed a number of files in a folder which were related to installation
programs and when I go to open the particular folder within the new folder I
get a "denied access" icon and cannot open the subfolder or copy it to a new
folder. I have made sure the read only check box is clear under the folder
properthies and selected apply but the folder will not unlock. Is there a
way to unlock the particular main folder or subfolders
