i have created an image file of one partition- put it on another partition, same computer (drive image pro) everything went smoothly except now that im back in windows, trying to move it off that comp, onto a storage server, whenever i try to copy it, it says: cannot copy "filename", access is denied. make sure the disk is not full or write protected. neither partition is full or write protected. ive scanned for virus and spyware- none. the disk is not read only- shouldnt matter anyway. i have admin rights to the machine. ive completely deleted that image and tried again- same exact situation. ive tried to do it in safe mode- same error. what is the next step? thank you all much for your input.

Hi Make sure you have admi rights to each folder if so from a command prompt, navigate to the drive where the folder is ie d:\ and type "attrib -r" (without the quotes) and press enter this removes the read only permissions which happens when moving files.
