I tried that as a test, but I get the same error when attempting to write to my own user folder:
somehow a \ got dropped in 'Can't move 'C:svn-451D8A18' in my original message.

Here is the copied and pasted error message again:
Can't move 'C:\Users\KenGBrown\Documents\svn-425349C8' to
'C:\Users\KenGBrown\Documents\myFolder': Access is denied.

Thx,
Ken
