Cannot access removable media.

[Guest Bobby28]

XP SP2 machine that cannot access removable media (cd/dvd, usb, etc..). The

user is a member of the local admin's group, and the admin group when logging

onto the domain. There are no default domain causing the issue (other users

are fine) and nothing I find in the local secuirty policy causing this

behavior.

 

When inserting a cd, it says "Administrator has .....access denied"

something along those lines. When I click run > e:\ I get an access denied

error.

 

Please help...thank you!

Group policies, if the PC is part of a "corporate" business network

that has a Windows Server

 

If this is a single PC, get proper anti-virus / anti-spyware tools via

downloads and install. This type of message can indicate an

infestation.

Re: Cannot access removable media.

 

Thank you for the reply Kelly.

 

I have tried the file but get the same result. "Administrator has prohibited

access"...when I type e:\ I get the "access denied" still.

 

Any ideas?

There are reports that the "eLock Service" which comes with

a Norton product causes this.

Start -> Run

services.msc

 

Check if you find "eLock Service" here. Set it to disabled

and stop it.

 

Another reports say that the "Intel Desktop Utilities"

cause this. If you have these installed shortly, uninstall

them.

Well, it's an Acer desktop pc. Acer has a program where you can lock drives

etc...however it is disabled. I've even locked everything and unlocked but

still not working.
