How to Fix “Folder Access Denied” You Need Permission to Perform This Action.

The way Windows works is that if a folder, program or a file is being used by another process, then the user will not be able to make any changes to it. If you are getting the error “You need permission to perform this action” while trying to delete or move the file/folder, then it is most likely caused by a permissions issue or that file/folder is being used by another program. For example: The folder or file within the folder is being backed up or is being scanned by your AntiVirus program. If the permissions are changed, then you will still be presented with this error – even if you are the administrator. In this guide, i will walk you through a couple of methods to address this issue.
