SetFA: #5 - Access is denied.
Posted: 28 Dec 2020, 09:27
I am unable to delete the duplicate files I have selected. I receive the following message:
"ERROR: The file '\\VAIO-LISAGIRL\Pictures\To File_Photos\Downloads\0221214820.jpg' couldn't be deleted: #5 - Access is denied. (\\VAIO-LISAGIRL\Pictures\To File_Photos\Downloads\0221214820.jpg) SetFA: #5 - Access is denied."
I get this same message regardless of the files I select for deletion. I get this message if I try to move the files to the Recycle Bin or move them to a folder. I am running the program as an administrator and I also followed the advice I found on a really old post....changing permissions for user. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the program, restarting computer, disabling Anti-Virus/Firewall software. I have searched the Help files and this forum as well with no luck. I am running Windows 8.1.
I love the interface/functionality of this program. It is straightforward, very customizable and user friendly and I am so frustrated that I can't eliminate my duplicate files. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
