title: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
body: <pre><code>open(r'C:\Users\Matt\Desktop\Private')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I run this code I get the error "PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:" but I don't know how to fix it? This should open up the folder "Private" but it always pops that error, I'm on Windows 8. </p>
