Why is access denied when I am the administrator?
Some programs, folders, and files are owned by the System account, which is not open to regular users. These accounts belong to the OS, and it is better that Windows uses it. If you are denied access, it’s because you are not the owner or do not have permission to run these.
Why does it say I need permission from the administrator when I am the administrator?
It’s because you do not have permission to access the file, and they belong to another admin or top the system OS. You will need to add your account as the user to the file or folder, and then you can access them without an error.
