I tried to install a program, but cannot, because it tries to put something in my C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\documents folder, and cannot. I get an error message that the folder is not accessible, access is denied. What does this mean? Why can I not access that folder? Even when I click on it, I get the same message.

I saw the identical problem in other posts, but only w/ XP Pro, not with Home Edition. That fix doesn't seem to apply here. Windows Help says that "The Simple File Sharing interface cannot be disabled in Windows XP Home Edition"

HELP! So what do I do?
