[@blackmoon818]

Nearly 2 years after you posted this, but THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO - I am currently dealing with moving to a new computer, and having to sort out the disaster that became of my file management on my old one has been a nightmare with the admin permission thing on ALL the files moved from my old computer onto my external drive for the move over, and moving files around to better organise them (or organise them at all) on the new computer - every single one requires admin permission to move. This just made it 3X easier. THANK YOU!!!

[@N0_0ffense]

You have just mentioned my entire situation I have just had!

[@TheMoogaFooga]

Anybody that gets an Access Denied message - copy the FOLDER the images are in to your desktop - you will get a prompt about permissions click accept. Once its copied delete the original folder and then move the one you copied back to its original location. This fixed the permissions for me

[@Arbazkhan-SilentSeller]

when i apply the setting it shows access is denied ..what should i do please guide me

[@jibriljinno]

for some reason i didnt work for me.. before i did all these... the contents were moved to a new folder already maybe i should do an additional step?

[@gerryodonnell4554]

Don't know if you're still following these comments Miguel but I had no joy with this. I'm still getting the error message cannot view as may not be enough memory.

[@yusrashaikh751]

I followed the same process but it still isn't opening ??

[@nagarjunavnv]

i am using windows 7 in this settings has no option as u tell

I used Python to do this with a short program that rewrites the image so you can view it.

[@ChristopherFreedom]

This was perfect! Thank you!

[@microsoftsarker]

Thank you! Finally got it working. This was the most helpful advice for me!

[@vivientaylor3272]

It worked. Marvellous. Tried many other methods with no success.

[@abdulrehman-wg3py]

It worked I saw many vedios with most views but the error came coming But when i did this it solved my problem Thanks

[@AlirezaS]

I get an error when trying to Apply the changes in time 0:55 . (The error is this: "Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied".) What should I do? help me.

[@saagar_kapoor]

Could you please show how to achieve the same in Windows 7?

[@justincronkright5025]

Windows 11 this didn't fix anything... And there are far more profiles, they duplicate it seems in the permissions box after the security. It shows that I have full control as I did it for the whole folder, but it still keeps popping up on my picture's screen that I don't have permission to view the image. Despite letting me do everything with it from viewing to rotating, etc.

[@Runsheeg53633]

what if I don't see the 'security' section.

[@ragnarok1984p]

I am using windows 8.1 and photo viewer is acting weird opens most of the photos but for some it says "unable to display picture because there might not be enough memory available" i tried going to color settings as advised on other sites but could not delete the settings i only checked the box to use my settings , also tried to press window+R key type cleanmgr and enter and cleaned all the error dumps and stuff and after restarting the computer still got the same "unable to display picture because there might not be enough memory available" i asked a friend of mine to download the same pictures and see if he can open them he said everything opens without problems on his computer. is there anything else i can try ?

[@gwendolynbutler]

This is the third solution I have tried. (Different variations--Yours is first one to mention "Replace all child object.....), followed by reboot...restart. Nothing works. ;(

[@marciatavares3052]

Hi. I have tried to do how you did it and some open but others still don't open. Please help.

[@riyadaari2041]

I'm using window 7 in this setting has no option as you tell sir plz tell me about this

[@moyapandelaki5156]

Anda Seorang pahlawan buatku.. terima kasih tak terhingga 🙏🙏🙏

[@ypsiow1008]

Followed the method, could open jpg but can't open HEIF/HEIC on Photo Viewer. While in File Explorer, all thumbnails can be displayed but when HEIF photo is being clicked and default Photo app is opening the photo, the photo is displayed in a blurry low-res image. I've installed HEIC codec from Windows Store.

[@usamamohamed4036]

welcome back .special thanks for you.

[@prateekbhardwaj5330]

Thanks brother for this video but can u tell how to solve this problem for any other type of files in windows 7

[@NR20244]

Not working. Every solution is the same thing and nothing works

[@gujratharitagevideod5283]

it appears that you don't have permission to view this file. check the permissions and try again.

[@mgml]

In windows 10 the dialogue boxes don't have the same options. Still can't open emailed photos.

[@priyabrata6893]

Downloaded images not open. What I do?

[@franklynonurbiznes2488]

Drat! Seems I'm the dummy here. My screen was different but I stumbled thru. It worked on one picture & 3-4 docs but not on 2nd picture. Wished tech folks would realize many have different screen results & include some "in case" follow up.

[@DavidLiewcy]

I don't see the security tab in my folder's properties

[@nadiraries4440]

Finally... a real working solution Thank you so much for your help

I found easier way as it didn't work for me. Type in run command> colorcpl(aka Color Management)> Advanced>Device Profile. Then select the Agfa: Swop Standard. SIMPLE!
