How to Fix Windows Cannot Access the Specified Device, Path, or File Error.

"Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item."

You may receive the exact error when trying to start a program or open a file on your Windows computer. Apparently, simply gaining the required permission doesn't solve the error effectively, that's why so many people are posting the same question and asking further help from Microsoft support and some prevailing forums.

So, what are the possible reasons that make Windows fail to access the specified device, path or file as normal? Why don't you currently have permission to access the folder? What sensible suggestions should you follow to make sure that you don't necessarily lose programs and files?

This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops,and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems.Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung).
