Cannot access c:\windows\temp folder.

Relatively new Windows 11 laptop. When I open the C:\windows folder in File Explorer and attempt to open the temp folder (full path - C:\windows\temp) nothing happens.  I don't get the security popup that states that I don't have access to the folder and press Continue to permanently gain access to the folder which is what I would expect.  My user account is set as Administrator.  How do I get access to this folder?  Is this folder locked down for security reasons?

    Right-click on Temp and select Properties.
    Click on Security.
    Under Groups or user names, select Everyone.
    In the permissions section, check Full Permissions under the Allow column.
    Click OK.
