You need to take ownership of the old 'My Documents' folder.

Right click the folder > Properties > Security > Advanced > Owner

Select your current user from the list of users in the dialog box. They click 'apply'. Can take a few minutes to overwrite the security, but afterwords you'll have full access again.

Only if he's on Pro. that can't be done on home to my knowledge.

His crash is because of something that has modified the OS, no bones about it.

Bullshit. You're claiming to have been an IT pro since you were 10 years old if that was the case since you're 22 now. At least make your lies believable man :icon19: .

Thats not what you implied. You've worked on computers and repaired yours (or your parents) when it broke for twelve years. Thats a very different thing than fixing, building, of maintaining PCs professionally for that long.

A professional fix requires customer service, speed, accuracy and the ability to leave the customer feeling as if their money has been well-spent. A home fix lets you take however long you want, fuck up and not have anybody know it, and not near the requirement for service. Some of the concepts are the same but the task itself is quite different.

As for length of time in this field that doesn't necessarily mean a lot. Last month I canned a "dekstop tech" who has supposedly been in this field "fixing" computers for over 20 years. The problem was he didn't know a damned thing about troubleshooting, the technical underpinnings of an OS, or getting a task done on time. I've since hired a replacement with 2 years experience who runs circles around his predecessor simply because hes worked hard to learn every single thing that he can in that shorter time.
