I have using Windows Server 2016 and they cannot copy a file out from the specified folder name and popup an error code 0x80070780. But if we create a new folder and copy that new folder out that work. The attribute of the Drive is not Read-Only. Can you help us ?

    Hello

    The error code 0x80070780 typically means “The file cannot be accessed by the system”. This error can occur due to several reasons:

    1.Lack of Administrator Privileges: You may be using a user account that does not have all the privileges of the computer. Therefore, error 0x80070780 may be triggered due to loss of administrator rights to copy or delete certain files.

    2.System Files are Damaged or Missing: It is common for folders with important system components to be accidentally deleted, causing them to fail to function properly.

    3.Viruses or Trojan Horse Software: Although this should be less likely with a new computer.

    Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

    Run DISM tools and SFC commands: Press the Windows key and type the word CMD, right-click on the command prompt and select Run as administrator, enter the following commands in sequence and press Enter:

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

    sfc /scannow

    Create a Local Administrator Account: After creating a new local account, switch to the new local account and check whether the file can be deleted.

    If these steps do not resolve your issue, you might want to consider running a disk check. The Chkdsk utility can be helpful in fixing disk errors and, as a result, solving the 0x80070780 error. To perform a Chkdsk scan, use the Win+E key combo to launch File Explorer.

    I have the same issue on a brand new Dell XPS running Windows 11. This happened right after I got it a month or so ago and I ran these commands which found corrupted files. I had to do a reinstall of Windows 11 which allowed me to access some files but not others,. I just ran the commands again and got "no component store corruption detected". But I still cannot open some files and get error code 0x80070780. What next?
