Here is Microsoft's fix for that.\n1. Turn off Simple File Sharing: a.  Click Start, and then click My Computer. \nb.  On the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the View tab.  \nc.  Under Advanced Settings, click to clear the Use simple file sharing (Recommended) check box, and then click OK.  \n \n2. Right-click the folder that you want to take ownership of, and then click Properties. \n3. Click the Security tab, and then click OK on the Security message, if one appears. \n4. Click Advanced, and then click the Owner tab. \n5. In the Name list, click your user name, Administrator if you are logged in as Administrator, or click the Administrators group. \n\nIf you want to take ownership of the contents of that folder, click to select the Replace owner on subcontainers and objects check box. \n6. Click OK. \n\nYou may receive the following error message, where Folder is the name of the folder that you want to take ownership of: \nYou do not have permission to read the contents of directory Folder. Do you want to replace the directory permissions with permissions granting you Full Control? All permissions will be replaced if you press Yes. \n7. Click Yes. \n8. Click OK, and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and the folder contents.

You might try BadCopy. I don't know that it is free but I'm sure there some programs like it on the web. \n\nBadCopy will dig anything off of your disk (even deleted files). Still, I wouldn't pay for something you will rarely use.

Almost any file can be restored. Try searching Yahoo! or Google for "Download Free Data Recovery Software" (without quotes) or go here http://www.soft32.com/download_7508.html\n\nSearch for part of the subject and it should come up eventually

My first answer is, reboot.  Sometimes that's enough to take care of those sorts of problems.  If that doesn't work, open "My Computer" and go to the folder where you've saved it.  Find "Folder Options" in the menus--if you're using Windows XP, go to Tools->View Folder Options.  Then click on the "View" tab.  From there, look through the options until you find "Show Hidden Files and Folders", or something similar.\n\nOnce you can see hidden files, have another look at that directory and see if you've got some hidden files there.  Nine chances out of ten you do.  Look for files that have a name very close to the name you saved the file as and that are hidden files.  Go ahead and delete those ones.  DON'T DELETE THE ORIGINAL, NON-HIDDEN FILE.  If you're not sure, make a copy of the folder before you try it.  Once you delete the hidden locking files, you should be good to go.

Try going up to folder options and select show hidden files. Then you should be able to see all the files on your computer even hidden thumbs.

Go now to this site & download PC Inspector Smart Recovery. It's free & will recover your file. The more you delay the bigger chance your system will use the space where the file is and destroy it.\n\nhttp://www.download.com/PC-Inspector-Smart-Recovery/3000-2242_4-10261986.html?tag=lst-0-1\n\nGood luck, I think it will get it for you.

I dont think there is a way of getting it back. Although you could check for files under internet options and then clicking on temporary internet files. You might find something there.

try log in again, you might not be able to view certain files because of your user rights. your administrator is the one that controls what one see and does so talk to him/her.
