I made a secondary account when a guest came, and went to the C:\Users folder, right clicked on the main account, went to "Give access to" and then "Remove access". I messed with some other options as well, to make sure they can't enter.
Now, when I log on the main account, the screen is entirely black, no icons are shown, all of the folders on the taskbar are shown as white papers, and I don't have permission do anything on that account, or see anything.
I have to access the files on the main account, via some other account, by going to C:\Users\MainAccount and then typing the password of that account. And then I can access those files, but only from another account, never from that main account. What can I do to fix this?
1What can I do to fix this? Create new account. Move datafiles to it from damaged account folders. – Akina – 2018-08-02T10:01:24.050
I was thinking about returning permissions to the account? - is that not a possibility? I know all of the passwords, both of the admin and non-admin users. – Orangeball3 – 2018-08-02T10:44:42.670
1To restore all permissions/owners for all folders/files? It's possible, I think, but it will take a very long time and a lot of attention... I have never heard that somebody did it. – Akina – 2018-08-02T10:49:54.740
