It is likely it wasn't a recommended location and when upgraded, permissions or ownership have reverted back to a system user.

If you must change this folders permissions, check this article out https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727008.aspx. Set Full Control for your user name.

Saving documents under My Documents is a safer place as backup programs will back up that location etc.
