    problem is there are several such folders. I think this is related to prior errors.

    get back on ADMIN.
    right click the \users\NEWUSER folder -> Properties->Security

    now TAKE OWNERSHIP as the ADMIN
    • Permissions, Auditing, Owner, Effective Perms
    • Click Owner and make ADMIN the owner
    • [x] Replace on Subdirs
    (and NEWUSER Full Control will be just fine) and give you access to the User's Start Menu

    The 'system start menu' is located at
    • \users\All Users\Start Menu
    Right click on it->Properties->Security
    You should see Everyone, System, Administrators.

    If Everyone is missing,
    • click Edit
    • click Add
    • enter EVERYONE, click Check Names
    • select Everyone
    • under Perms 4 Everyone under the Allow column,
    • [x] Read & Execute
    • [x] List folder
    • [x] Read
    click OK

    I'm sure this works but I am having glitches. Maybe there was something within the user that was corrupt also. I thank you for your time and very useful help. Factory restore and 200 updates seems like my solution for now.. I have to get this back up before my schoolwork is due on Sunday. If I have any problems after that, I will re-post. Thanks again, you are awesome, my pc is not.:)
