Default Access denied to my doccuments folder

Out of the blue I suddenly no longer have access to my documents folder.
When I check the security settings for the folder it has a check mark next
to all the types of access for my user name but whenever I click on the
folder I get a message saying that I have no access to it. Any and all help
would surely be appreciated.

I did a system restore from a restore point way back when I know that the
problem didn't exist but that didn't help.

The reference you provided deals with problems arising from upgrading from
Windows XP to Vista. In my case I have a clean Vista Premium install.

Luckily I discovered my problem and fixed it. When I right clicked on
Documents and selected Properties then selected security, along with my name
and administrator there was an entry for Everybody but with no permissions
checked. I removed the entry for everybody, closed everything out then left
clicked on documents. It now opened as it should.

Thanks anyway for your help as I was afraid that I would have to do another
clean install to fix the problem.

Ron
