If your name is not there, select Edit and when the box comes up, select Add and type in your username, i.e. Dave, in my case. Once added select Okay. Make sure the Full Control box is checked.

If that does not work, select Advanced, select the Owner tab and see if you own the folder. If not, select Edit and see if you name comes up and select it. If not, add it. Make sure to check the box that starts off with "Replace owner on...".

I did not see my username so I tried to add it and then it was going to apply the settings but it hung up on the first file.
