Hello,

right-click your original Program Files folder and click Properties. Go to
tab Security, and see which users have which permission. Now, right-click
D:\Program Files -> Properties -> tab "Security", and add/remove users and
change their permissions so that they match the permissions in the old
folder.

Hope this will help.
Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo
