Take Ownership of Files and Folders in Windows If you get the You have been denied permission to access this folder message after clicking Continue, that means you are not the owner and you’ll have to first take ownership of the folder before you can change any permissions. This will try to give your user account permissions to the folder as long as you are the owner. Before you start doing any work, you should try to click on the Continue button that will show up in Windows 7 and Windows 8 automatically. To gain access to the file or folder, you’ll need to have the correct permissions configured for your account. We’ll talk about file in use errors in the next section.
This particular error is normally caused by NTFS permissions, but it can also be caused by other issues like a corrupt user profile, encryption on the file or if the file is in use.
If you’re not an Administrator on the computer, you’re probably not going to be able to fix this issue, so first make sure you can get access to an admin account. If you get the Access is Denied or You don’t currently have permission to access this folder message, then you’re probably looking at a permissions problem. You can usually figure out which situation you’re involved with by taking a look at what exactly you’re trying to do.
