Re: 2 Dell Vista PC's access to each other's C: drive is denied!

I just assigned permissions to "Everyone", which seems to be working
OK. Interestingly enough Vista is protecting a LOT of the folders
from viewing by the other PC, but I expected this.

The only question I have left is: Will new folders inherit the
security settings of the folders above them?

Thanks, Bill
