I recently got a new computer with Windows 7 (“graduating” from XP)
I have two issues with Windows 7 that are quite annoying. I’ve even googled them and it seems that it is a common problem. Perhaps some of the experts here have some suggestions.
1) The most annoying is the inability to delete some folders under Windows Explorer. Basically, it says that I have to get permission from the administrator, MEL. I AM the administrator. I am the only user. I have found a workaround by using an old DOS command via the command line. I’ve checked permissions and supposedly I do have permissions. But apparently it doesn’t recognize me? What is going on?
2) The second is not as big a deal, but the keyboard shortcuts don’t work. When I set up a keyboard shortcut (ctrl-alt-key), by right clicking and choosing properties for a file, it works the first time. But after that, it doesn’t work. Oddly, there is one program that does consistently work with my shortcut. Any ideas? With XP, I used a great utility, WINKEY, to create shortcuts. Is there something comparable for Windows 7?
