The following msg is appearing when trying to open any program, control panel functions even when trying to open msconfig from run

"Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item"

and the programs don't open ????

if I go to safe mode then I can open the programs. but if I return to normal mode I face the same problem

is that problem with security ?? I don't know and I hope you help me Thanks

It seems your user profile is the problem. When you start in safe mode go into the control panel and change the settings for your user profile.
