I am not sure why, maybe because it is an "off the shelf, W8.1 pre-installed" computer, but as full admin I just do NOT have all permissions and just can not change the permission also in the properties and such.
It seems I am not alone in that, according to my Google searches.
But I found a solution, a simple .reg that give you full ownership of any folder or file.
Now I will never have to see these irritating (non)error messages again.:thumb:
Here is where I found it, with a link to download the .reg file
