That didn't work. And the thing about System Restore is I installed it like a month ago, I've installed several things since then, and I have a feeling System Restore would just mess that up.

I don't know what a "lock" overlay on an icon could mean, unless it's being added by a 3rd party application.
I certainly haven't seen it and I use VMware workstation all the time. Drfsupercenter, have you installed any tools that augment explorer i.
I don't know what "protected folders" means in this context, but if taken at face value it implies somehow you've set file protections on your desktop or the contents of same that make Windows 7 believe they are "protected".
More research is needed What do you see when you right-click on one of the icons with a lock on it, choose Properties, then click the Security tab? Does your username appear in the top box, and when you select it do you see that Full control is checked? Saturday, November 28, PM. Dale, from what I can see it didn't remove the locks at all.
He wrote: "I did uninstall VMWare. What do they mean? I don't know because I haven't run across the Microsoft documentation yet describing what they mean. Do you know the specifics, Dale? If the lock overlays have something to do with sharing folders, then it's KEY to determine what they mean. If it's a permissions problem, he'll want to work out how a to get the permissions right again, and b to stop doing whatever he's doing that's causing the permissions problem. VMware does have some capabilities to see across the virtual machine boundary into the host, but it doesn't use Windows networking and I don't see how this could cause lock icons on his desktop.
That just doesn't make sense. Here are the pertinent things: - Exactly what does the padlock overlay mean? Alright, well Yes, it works fine if I download it elsewhere and copy to the desktop. I tried having my desktop shared with everyone, but all new files added to it are then un-shared.

The reason some don't is that if the parent folder is already private, none of the child folders will show the lock. Sunday, June 12, AM. It's a little more complicated than what you hope for, I think. Try this exercise: 1. Create two subfolders, NotShared and Shared in it.

I reiterate my question: Since the Lock icon is supposed to indicate an inability to see into that folder from a network connection even though you've shared something at a parent level, can you see into those folders from another computer via a network connection?
