Why is access denied to Application Data, Pictures, Cookies, Documents and
Settings, etc. via Windows Explorer? I am the Administrator and only user.

You should be able to open "Documents", and "Pictures", if they are folders
under your account name.

"Application Data", "My Documents", "My Pictures" & "Documents and
Settings"
are no longer folders, but are junction points, used by Vista to accommodate
older programs which install to or use those folders. Leave them alone.
