Typically Windows can get around this if your user account has administrative privileges, but for some reason this simply doesn't work when dealing with a VMWare mapped disk. How can I fix the 'Access denied' error after mounting the disk (when attempting to access the user folder)? "įirst, let me say that the reason you are encountering an "access denied" on the user folder is because there are security bits set for that specific user account which are trying to keep "outsiders" out of the folder. For the record I have tried copying the files by networking his virtual machine to mine but it is insanely slow. There does not seem to be any way to access his files using this method. After virtualizing the machine I mapped his drive in Windows Explorer when I try to access c:\users\jim (his user folder), Windows keeps giving me an ' Access denied' error. I recently virtualized a friend's PC which was facing numerous blue screens - I suspect his PC has a hardware error.
They have their System attribute set as well as Hidden, so if you didn't also set explorer view options to show Protected System files, you wouldn't have seen them.Thank you for your pearls of wisdom! I have a question regarding VMWare Workstation.
Typing in the Address bar of Explorer:ĭoes your encryption program allow you to just skip it? that would be the easiest. While its permissions give access denied when trying to view it, you can traverse it. They're there for backward compatibility. It's not a true folder, it's a reparse point.
