Hi everyone...I am desperate. I was trying to set security on my root drive
(C drive) so that my guest account would not be able to access my C drive.
However, upon restarting into my regular account (which says administrator
under it), my media center would not start and I keep getting random error
messages (i.e. "Microsoft Feeds Synchronization not responding") So I
checked my C drive and it says "Access denied". I tried changing the
permissions on the drive back, but access denied. So I went back to User
Accounts and I couldn't change anything on my account. I did manage to
delete the Guest account, but that's about it. System restore doesn't work
either. This really is frustrating me. I apparently don't have
administrative access even though my account says my name and then under it
Administrator. Please help! I need my computer.
 
I tried the link when I click on advanced, edit, or any of those options with
the windows shield next to them, I get this message "Can't Open Access
Control Editor. Access is denied." Yikes!
