[ALLY] VID File Requestor 1.0 Re:(4)
From: s_woodrum:ho:tmail at: 21-Sep-2000 12:09
On my system - windows 2000 sp1 - the file requestor works great until I
attempt to browse the root of the c: drive. Here's what I get:
** Access Error: Cannot open /C/System Volume Information/.
** Where: dir? file [append dirs first files remove files]
[change/only files reduce [files/1 size? file modified? file] files: next
files]
>>
I tried various combinations of attrib:
C:\>attrib -H "c:\system volume information"
Not resetting system file - C:\System Volume Information
C:\>attrib -S -H "c:\system volume information"
Access denied - C:\System Volume Information
C:\>attrib -R -S -H "c:\system volume information"
Access denied - C:\System Volume Information
If I give my local administrator's group (of which I am a member) full
control over this folder, everything is fine. (I don't think that's a good
solution though!).
It is a hidden file. Dir doesn't show it. Should the file-requestor show
hidden files as well?
Windows has this folder pretty well protected. I admit I'm not sure what
it's purpose is......:-)
Anybody else have this problem?
Thanks,
Scott
