I am assuming a few things here.

I meant the "My Documents" folder for Anthony.
2. That you updated the various registry entries that
point to the folders.
Not directly.
3. Depending on HOW you moved the folder the ACL's
could be wrong.
Drag and drop. Windows claims to let you do this...
4. ACL's are lost when you move between volumes using
copy/move; Dunno
if the My Documents->Properties->Target process move
the ACL's.
That's my guess, though I'd done it before without problems. IIRC.
So chances are that you're inheriting rights from C:\
that prevent
access to the My Documents sub-tree or have not
updated the registry
pointers depending on how you moved the folder.

I used the command line program that Thane pointed me to. Everything got
fixed in one quick press of the return button. Thanks.

Here we go again....
On PC B, I had setup a 25 GB C partition with the OS
and Apps loaded.
There was a second D partition that held everything
else. Long story
short, I moved the "My Documents" folder from the D
partition to the C
partition. It seemed as if everything moved over.
However, now I cannot
open any file in "My Documents" as I get the message
that Access is
Denied. I've done this kind of thing before and
windows has always
allowed a system folder to be moved. Note that I
have admin account for
the user Anthony.
Any ideas?
