We can see take ownership in contextualmenu, but when we execute it, nothing happen in advancy-security, normally all cases for administrator must be x ( full permission!!), i thing that it worked, but not since 2 month, since a update( or maybe since SP2!!)

I cant replace these .dll files even though i already took ownership of the folder and got full rights to these? This wonderful vista says that i`ve no rights or its opened in another program. Please someone help me ! I`ve been fighting with this for hours.

It a great feature but personally i wud like a revert ownership feature too. Since i have my doubts that if ownership were with my admin and if some malware was residing in the system, it cud use the ownership to corrupt windows files whereas earlier UAC wud not allow that. Is there some way to revert the ownership back to wat it was?

This was a big help, but I’m guessing precations should be used with this too. It will recursively go through all children of the folder and change those permissions. Could that be very bad ?

I would not recommended this for win7…. I used it all the time on XP and Vista, but I installed it in win7 RC and used it a few times, and my system is all messed up. Can’t update anything, and many apps arn’t running right…. I’m just waiting till the 22nd for my full copy of win7 to reformat.

I don’t think I’ve said this to another man before (except for my Father, of course) but here goes. I love you.
