Permissions

Posted: 06-30-2006, 12:10 AM

Hi, could someone show me how to allow me (only user) permission to view a
folder (ie documents & settings, application data, etc.) I have unchecked
the box in Control Panel User Accounts, there is now a red shield on taskbar
warning of this.

But I still cannot even view certain folders. Attempts to import addresses
from Outlook Express to Outlook is unsuccessful also, 0 files are imported
(the Outlook newsgroup gave me the process).

I cannot even locate the folder that 'may' contain the .csv file that I
need. I used a memory stick that contains this .csv file but that G: drive
source didn't produce any files even though the .csv file size is 8.57kb.
I selected C: drive, end result was again 0 files imported.

On one of the warning Permissions windows, it states I should see the
Security Tab to fix this. That only pertains to that path to that folder.
I would have to make changes to every folder I want to open/view. And I
honestly couldn't figure out what to change. Where my name was shown, my
login I assumed, it showed Full Control.

Could someone show me where I can disable this security? I couldn't find
any further boxes to uncheck in the Control Panel in Windows Security
Center. Or should I be logging in as Administrator and how do I do that?
The only login icon I have available on boot is Mine.

Thanks for Any Help, Ideas or web page I could read to disable this
security. I read all the reasons why I should keep it. Now I want the
choice to disable it if possible.

Hi Katy, Not much help here..sorry :-( I'm having the same issue and am
waiting for someone to answer me as well. I do know that in Vista there is
nothing in "Doc and settings" it all in the "Users" folder off of the root C.
If you have found the answer by now I sure would love to here from ya :-)

Regards
Phil

If the folder is owned by System (Vista), you do not have access rights.
Just what folder are you trying to access? And clean up your language,
you're in a public place and it should embarrass you to post like that.

Do you mean "C:\Users\All Users\"?

YOUR folders are in "C:\Users\Your_User_ID\"

If you mean C:\Users\All Users\ then that's a junction point - it's not
a folder. This is to allow legacy apps that don't use the new Vista
directory structure to operate...you can't access it. Neither can you
access C:\Documents and Settings for the same reason.
have a look here for more info on Junction points
