You don't currently have permission to access this folder!

Basically, if you are an administrator on your Windows 2008 or 2012 server, you have probably run across the problem when you don't seem to have permissions to a folder, although you are the admin.

This has been driving me nuts and I just had to look it up.  I found:You Currently don't have permissions which explained that there are three settings that need to be modified (basically UAC):

Computer Configuration --> Windows Settings --> Security Settings --> Local Policies --> Security Options

• User Account Control: Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account
• User Account Control: Behaviour of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode
• User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode

Set the policies settings as follows in the following order as per the screenshot below:

• Disabled
• Elevate without prompting
• Disabled 

 Have to wait for reboot, but hopefully it will remove this annoyance!
