How was access denied? Did you remove the allow permission AND apply the
deny permission? Which Groups did you deny? Administrator is a member of
Domain Users, for example. So if you denied domain users, guess what? Deny
overides anything, admin or not.
Additionally, since account names mean nothing (its the SIDs that matter),
have you verified what permissions the data folder has in relation to your
new installation? Have you considered that the file's permissions might be
inherited through the parent folder's permissions and inheritence thereof?
