System restore files

I went through the whole thing to get access to the system volume information folder (clicking show hidden folders, etc.) but for some reason no matter what i do when i click on that folder a window pops up that says "system volume information is not accessable access is denied" and the properties also read "0 bytes" anyone know what the deal is?

If properties tab is showing "0" bytes maybe there is noting to access ?
I was just checking on my comp and system volume info is accessible only on system drive (C: ), others read "0" bytes and "access denied"!!!
