On the top of the window that just opened select the TAB named SECURITY. You should now see a list of " Users " in the upper box and a EDIT button below the upper box. Select EDIT, this will open yet another window that looks alot like the one you were just in. Now select your USER account in the upper box and in the lower box you will see little boxes that you can put check marks in. Put a check mark in the box labeled FULL CONTROL. You know have full access or control to change the name or do anything with that folder.. Select APPLY and close all the windows..


Have fun..
He went to college to write that :P Very well written, like the part when you broke down the checkboxes. Another way is to add another user group (one that isnt known like, EVERYONE, and use something like WOWADMIN) and giving it full control, then adding your account to that user group, though thats probably a bit more detailed than most would like to go into.
