I have now for the first time used Vista and my feelings are mixed.

The first thing I did was to install Power Desk because I do not like the Explorer at all. It seems to me Explorer is getting worse and navigation is confusing (Why did Billy have to change it). Power Desk works fine and gives me the view I am used to and navigation, of course, is much easier.

However, there is one big change that puzzles me and I am constantly fighting with it: I could not access my OWN FOLDERS because one gets this annoying message box that access is denied: to my own folders? give me a break. The only solution is to access Properties > Security and then Permissions > Advanced and then give Full Control to EVERYONE and apply it. This then gives access to a folder. And this happens although I as an Administrator have full control etc.

There is no real help or support to explain this behavior. I checked it and could not find anything. Any opinions here?

I am sorry for my ignorance in this case.
