My Videos "You do not have permission"

[Guest]

I have Windows Vista Home Basic, and I am the only account on my computer.
It has the administrator's privilege's, and I have been trying to access the
'My Videos' folder for the past week. It keeps saying "You do not have
permission to view this folder." When I go to change the ownership like it
tells me to do, it says that my account is the owner. The only different
thing with this folder is that it has an 'Everybody' group, and I think that
is the problem. What do I need to do?

Are you sure it is My Videos? The folder I have is just Videos. Most of the
folders with "My" are not real folders but junctions to allow interface with
legacy programs
and they can not be accessed.

Yeah. It's 'My Videos.' Is there any way to make the folder accessable? I
had some videos saved on there that I want. I just recently upgraded to
Windows Vista from Windows XP, so I know there is video's saved there.

I changed the location of the 'My Videos' folder, and it switched over fine.
I think I lost some things inside, since they couldn't be transfered, but I
didn't have anything important in there that I remember. Thanks!
