Hi Jeff,

Take ownership of it first (include subcontainers), then change permissions.

Try running Windows Explorer with Run as administrator.

Kerry,
Tried that, I must be missing some obvious step here.

Jeff ... as far as I am aware, you should be able to take ownership of any
file on your hard drive when using administrator permission. Once you have
ownership, you should be able to change permission settings on the file
without prejudice (regardless of the permissions on the file).

I am curious as to what security is being applied to that file.

Please do the following:

- Click Start
- Type: cmd
- Right-click command prompt
- Click run as administrator
- Type: icacls PATH /save c:\permissions.txt

Where path is the file/folder you are having trouble with. For example:

icacls c:\windows\system32\explorer.exe /save c:\permisions.txt

- Browse to c:\
- Double-click permissions.txt
- Paste the contents of that file to the newsgroup
