Issue
I have recently installed Quicktime and since then I've got the "hello" folder containing "mdnsDSP.dll and mdnsresponder" files , settle in my Program Files.When I try to delete this folder, it prompts me with the following error message:"Access Denied".
Solution
The problem may be due to some administrative rights .- Open Explorer.
- Tools.
- Folder Options ...
- View Tab.
- Down in the list uncheck "Use simple file sharing (recommended)".
- Right click on the folder or file for which you do not have access, "Properties".
- Security tab.
- Advanced Settings.
- "Owner" tab..
- Select User.
- Check the following option: "Replace owner on sub containers and objects".
- Click on "Apply".
Try to delete the file again!
