No, I've found it to be quite a PITA. So if you go to C:\ and select Properties on the "Users" folder you still can't see permissions? I just looked on my server, but it's R2, I wouldn't think that would make a difference...but it might.
If you can access the "Users" folder you could take ownership at that level and have it applied to all subfolders. - WJR On Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 14:12, Tom Miller <tmil...@hnncsb.org> wrote: > Correct, I cannot.
