Computer stops remembering

Go to solution Solved by Joveice,

 

The problem isn't that the folder is Read Only. Rather, because your folder was created on a different installation of Windows you no longer have NTFS security permissions to access (read) the folder.

Correct this by following these steps to take ownership and then grant yourself full access to the folder.

  1. Right-click the folder > Properties
  2. Security tab > Advanced
  3. Click Change to the right of Owner
  4. Enter Users into box and click OK
  5. Enable the checkbox Replace owner on subcontainers and objects then click Apply
  6. If prompted that You do not have permissions to read... click Yes
  7. Completely close out of the Advanced Security Settings dialog
  8. Right-click the folder > Properties
  9. Security tab > Edit...
  10. Add...
  11. Enter Users into box and click OK
  12. Enable the Full Control checkbox then click OK

So my computer stops remembering settings i do for stuff. Etc steam login i check save password or what it is and it needs me to login each time i restart the pc.

Same goes with Skype, Game settings in CSGO, etc, so im guessing this is a Windows 10 problem?

Help please :)

Do you have like CCleaner or any other similar program that might be cleaning your cookies and temp files?

Hmmm I haven't had that issue, I always thought CSGO settings were saved on the cloud! 

 

Others I'm unsure of!

It looks like it happens to every game i have, and every program like steam, skype etc (not spotify tho :P)

EDIT:

I might have found what it was my C drive is Read only protected.

How do i fix this? like all my files are read only etc Programfiles (x86)
