You installed something, perhaps a security or other update that impacted
Permissions. I admit I have no idea what that might be. My first effort
would be an uninstall of recent updates, and put them back in one at a time
IF you get a change. The one at fault would probably be having some
interaction with a specific hardware setup you are using. Using Device
Manager in Control Panel, you could work thru hardware devices, uninstalling
and refinding drivers one at a time. All this would be tedious, but likely
to pinpoint the problem. I am getting this feeling you have a drive being
used for 'shadow copy' that has a driver problem, but hey!, what do I know?
