Question : Access Denied in C:\Temp problem

I am an admin of my computer on XP Pro and for some reason I can't connect to c:\temp.  The drive is NTFS.  I receive an access denied message, I am able to access everything except this folder?  

Answer : Access Denied in C:\Temp problem

If you can't view the Security tab, you most likely have simple file sharing enabled (this is the Windows default).  To view the Security tab, do the following:
- Open Windows Explorer or My Computer.
- Click on the Tools, then Folder Options.
- Click on the View tab.
- In the Advanced Settings section at the bottom of the list, remove the checkmark from in front of Use simple file sharing (Recommended) check box.
- Click OK.

You should then be able to see the Security tab.  You may need a reboot.

You state you "tried all apps".  What was the result of the malware scans in Safe Mode?
