Help needed with the little locks on folders in Windows
I have read so much about those dang lock icons on folders, and how to fix this folder by folder, but my problem is that these locks are on literally EVERYTHING. I only have one user on my computer, the admin. I feel like it started when I tried to get windows media player onto my xbox live. I have since then deleted WMP from my xbox, and even went so far as to deactivate it from my computer. I mean, there's gotta be a way to fix this without having to go through every single locked folder, right?
Thanks in advance, this has been super frustrating.

Lock icon: This means that you have a private item in a non-private directory. This indicates that it is a file or folder with special permissions & that the user is restricted from performing some operations on that file or folder. More here at: The overlay icons in Windows 7
