I think it might have something to do with permissions, since I keep getting similar errors.
1) I cannot change the wallpaper, except for groups of photos or by choosing a theme in the personalization menu. If I pick an individual photo, it sets my wallpaper as black. If I try from Photo Viewer it gives me an error message saying "The file ...\Windows Photo Viewer Wallpaper.jpg could not be written. Please check permissions on this file and try again".
2) If I try to use PrimoPDF, I get an error saying "Unhandled exception...Access to the path "F:\AppData\PrimoPDF\PrimoSet.xml" is denied and it doesn't work. PrimoPDF is installed on a different drive than the OS (SSD, I have too many programs to fit them all).
Does it sound like I'm right about the permissions? If so, what can I do to fix it? I'm hesitant to simply give full permission to everything on all the drives, but wouldn't that work?
Edit: Adding permissions to the drive with the background photos on it didn't work...
