Access denied. Contact your administrator.
I suddenly can not access all the files that I just saved under my documents folder from my laptop (windows 7). I have a domain with windows 2003 servers, and on my laptop (Windows 7), I have two users: userA in the domain, but the userB not. userA has roaming folder "My Documents" located on a file server. and userB has "Documents" folder on my laptop. I use userA to work with domain, and use userB for some personal work. If I access any of my files under "My Documents" from any of domain servers or workstations, I can access them without any issue. (BTW, userA is a domain Administrator with FULL CONTROL permission on all the folders on the file server.) But when I try to use userA from my windows 7 laptop to open a file that userA just created under "My Documents", userA gets a message saying "Access denied. Contact your administrator.". Same to userB, userB can create a new file under "Documents" folder, but can not access right after the file been created. Right a few days ago, everything was working normally. and I don't remember in this few days I've ever done any windows updates yet. Could this be a virus problem? I've used windows security essiential 2011 latest version full scaned the laptop by which killed one thing called TrojanDownloader:Win32/Delf" Any solution I can take to get my files reaccessable? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Arthur. I do not think the file permission settings have any issue though. The output of the command is posting below. Any suggestions? Thanks for you help.

Ok, the issue was caused by expired certificate. Thanks for the help.
