Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string startPath = @"c:\";
string[] oDirectories = Directory.GetDirectories(startPath, "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories);
Console.WriteLine(oDirectories.Length.ToString());
foreach (string oCurrent in oDirectories)
Console.WriteLine(oCurrent);
Console.ReadLine();

}
}
}

In windows 7.. it causes

Code:

Access to the path 'c:\$Recycle.Bin\S-1-5-21-327271160-3615910704-1843085597-500\' is denied.

Change the access to the $Recycle.Bin folder (or another you want/need).

I made an example:

Code:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Principal;
using System.Security.AccessControl;

class ChangeAccess
{
public static void Main()
{
string __StartPath = "C:\\$Recycle.Bin";
string[] __Directories;
string __UserName = string.Empty;
FileSystemAccessRule __AllowRule, __DenyRule;
bool __Modified = false;
FileSecurity __FileSec;

Console.WriteLine("Getting the current user name");

try
{
__UserName = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.ToString();
}
catch (System.Security.SecurityException e)
{
Console.WriteLine("Failed getting the current user name: {0}\nPress any key for exit", e);
Console.Read();
}
finally
{
__DenyRule = new FileSystemAccessRule(__UserName, FileSystemRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Deny);
__AllowRule = new FileSystemAccessRule(__UserName, FileSystemRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Allow);
}

Console.WriteLine("The current user name is: {0}\nGetting the current access control of path: {1}", __UserName, __StartPath);
__FileSec = File.GetAccessControl(__StartPath);

Console.WriteLine("Removing the current access rules");
__FileSec.RemoveAccessRule(__AllowRule);
__FileSec.RemoveAccessRule(__DenyRule);

Console.WriteLine("Changing the current access rules");
__FileSec.ModifyAccessRule(AccessControlModification.Set, __AllowRule, out __Modified);

Console.WriteLine("Applying the new entries of control access to current directory");
File.SetAccessControl(__StartPath, __FileSec);

Console.WriteLine("Getting the current list of subdirectories in: {0}", __StartPath);
__Directories = Directory.GetDirectories(__StartPath, "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

Console.WriteLine("{0} current directories in: {1} :", __Directories.Length.ToString(), __StartPath);

foreach (string __Current in __Directories)
Console.WriteLine(__Current);

Console.WriteLine("Finished!");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}

Modify to your needs, hope this help.
