File permission problem with server on Win7
#6
you have to actually go to properties and make sure the user you are on has full permissions.

you can be on your user name and it say Joesmith-administrator but still doenst mean you have full permissions, if you right click the file and go to security you will see a list of users and below that you will see allow and deny, to change that you need to go to advanced.
In advanced you will see a tab that says owner, make sure once you have added all the ALLOW to your user name, change the owner to that, i think default is administrator.

note: you are not signed in as administrator ( which has full control ) you are most likely singed in under (yourname) - ( administrator ) <-- which windows doesnt always give full control.

i can explain in more on IRC, #hype gamesurge.
