This is a common issue.

 

You can use an alternative explorer @ www.freecommander.com that can easily start with admin rights

Or use this command in a command prompt with admin rights;

So I've been trying to set up a RAM Disk, but I've ran into an issue. I always get "Access denied" when trying to save the newly-created disk's contents as an image file...

I can add/remove files from the disk just fine. But I can't save the contents as an image file. Any ideas?

 

I'm on 64-bit Win7 Home Premium.

Using ImDisk to mount disk and save contents as an image file.
