Hi all
Could someone help me?
I have 2 accounts, one as administrator and another for guests.
As administrator i tried do deny access to my drive c: to the guets and i
did, no problems. I restarted the windows to start with guests account just
to see if worked the access to my drive c: and it did. My problems started
when i changed to my administrator account, i could not open my drive c: as
administrator. Looks like i lost administrator rights. Is that possible? and
worse i dont have any response from user accounts, i cant do anything in user
accounts. Any help?

Hello,

What specifically did you do to deny access to guests? Also, do you have a
Windows setup DVD?

Well, i went to the properties of the drive and then security and selected
guests account and tick it on deny. I cannot remember exactly how i did, i
might tick the wrong user.
I dont have a windows setup DVD.

Lost,

In the Security area this is the defaults for Allow:

Authenticated Users - Only Special Permissions checked for Allow.

SYSTEM - Everything checked except Special Permissions for Allow.

Administrators (your computer name\Adiministrators) - Everything
checked except Special Permissions for Allow.

Users (your computer name\Users) - Only "Read & execute", "List folder
contents", and "Read" checked for Allow.


You may need to take ownership of the drive to modify these. This will
show you how.
