To put it simply, Windows permissions are complicated. The ACL model in Windows can often get in an inconsistent state. For example, you can give yourself read/write/execute permissions at the folder level, but this might not percolate downward to individual items in the directory, even if you click the appropriate box in the GUI. I had this happen when my profile got corrupted, and I needed to move files to a new account. You might need to write a Powershell script to change all of the files individually. Pretty annoying. Your best bet would be to read up on the built-in utilities called ICACLS.
