Reloaded windows 7 on my computer recently. This reformatted the drive and deleted Photo gallery.  When I reloaded gallery, and tried to open image files, I was confronted with an error message announcing I did not have adequet permission to open any of these files.

Is there any utility out there that can reset, in bulk, permissions, sharing, and ownership.  It can be done manually, but with several thousand image files,  manual reset is not an option.   Thanks for any positive feedback, that will resolve this issue.

Two days ago, on my Visa laptop, I renamed 337 image files in a folder and added 54 new images.  The changes were quickly sync'd to my SkyDrive.

However, 2 days later, my Win 8 PC still tells me it is "downloading 348.9MB of 523.8MB, 73 files remaining".

How do I shock SkyDrive into finishing the sync so I can work with the image files on my PC?

The changed files vary in size from 75Kb to 4.5Mb.
