This is because this is not the real folder. It is a junction point. The real folder is here: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies André"A programmer is just a tool which converts caffeine into code" CLIP- Stellvertreter http://www.winvistaside.de/

When I try to access the userfolder C:\users\user-owner\cookies I get an unauthorizedAaccessException , access denied. Even if I have an embedded application manifest like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" name="MyApplication.exe"/> <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2"> <security> <requestedPrivileges xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> <requestedExecutionLevel leel="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"/> </requestedPrivileges> </security> </trustInfo> </assembly> I get the UAC dialog window with"do you want to allow following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I answered "yes" but this does not prevent the access denied. prc

That folder I know off and I have access to it. But with the Folderbrowser and root folder C:\Users\<username>\ Getsubdirectories give me the following list \\AppData \\Application Data \\Contacts \\Cookies \\Desktop \\Documents I assumed that the subdirectory C:\Users\<username>\cookies was still another location for cookies but if there is just one location for cookies then this "problem" is solved.prc
