Default Folder in XP Pro is "not accessible - Access is denied"

I just recently upgraded to XP and when I tried to open certain folders I
get the following message:
"not accessible - Access is denied"

Is there a easy way to be able to access all folders on your computer
without getting the above message?



Thanks,



Charlie
