How to have Full Permission ?

AlexRD · Mar 1, 2009

Hello.
I am SO bored, because everything in Vista must Allow or Deny.
And even though i ALLOW, ME, the ADMINISTRATOR, THE OWNER from the Computer has the acess Denied. Thats dumb, i think.

So, i was wondering, how can i Take Ownership from my WHOLE computer and have the Full Permission from just everything. In a way to grant Acess to whole Notebook.

How do i do it?
I know its possible cause in a Modified Windows Version it was like that.

the reason you have this feature is because most users arent computer friendly and would happily and blissfully install viruses without even breaking a sweat, then come here and moan about it to try and get rid of them, if you have full permission, it will be like the security of windows 98. So for your safety, please leave windows as it is, and live with it.

If you do take ownership of everything, your system will become unbootable.. Im not kidding :shock:

Why are you getting Access Denied messages so often that you want to change the security parameters? unless your a programmer then you shouldn't be doing things that cause them that often and thats usually a sign its something you shouldn't do :sarc:

I too have the same problem. I would like to down load Firefox, HP updates and email spell check. I get the message security settings denied.

Well, i want to install themes in my Computer from a trusted site, but i always have the acess denied. and sometimes, when i copy ctrl X from desktop to C:/ it also gives me acess denied. Its ridiculous. And i prefer to install themes Manually, since .exe can contain even more virus.

Well, the Problem its not only on WINDOWS folder, its in many of them. Like, do you know the System Volume Information Folder? Which is hidden, and they even hide the size of it, which weighs 25 gb? I would want to know whats inside of it, but i don't have Acess to it. Neither to many other dumb folders.
And thats what i wanted to know.

Edit: Ops, im DUMB. System Volume Information is for System Restore.

Many of the system folders are hidden for a reason. That reason is that altering it can cause the computer to slow down, crash or become unbootable as has been mentioned earlier.

If you want to view these files then do so at your own risk, this website and its users will not be responsable for your actions.

To view hidden files and directorys;

Click on tool,folder options
Click on the view tab
Under Hidden files and folders select show
Take the tick out of hide protected operating system files.

Well, i already knew that, but whatever.
I won't touch any files , but i wanted to know how to disable Hibernation, so that it doesn't create the Hibernation File.

And also, what is Documents and Settings?
I mean, its a Copy from Administrator Folder?

As for disabling hibernation, see this tutorial at this site:

And as for all the User Account Control prompts, which is a big part of most users' aggravation: You should NOT turn off UAC. That is one of the primary features that protects your OS from viruses, trojans, and other malware. In the year and 10 months that I've had Vista, I have never been troubled by these dangerous pests, but back when I had XP, I was always getting infected no matter how careful my surfing and downloading habits were. And the situation gets worse every day...
Instead, do as I do, which is use this free program:
What is TweakUAC?
What is TweakUAC?
TweakUAC(TM) is a free software tool that you can use to quickly turn UAC (User Account Control of Windows Vista) on or off, or to make UAC operate in the quiet mode:
Using TweakUAC is extremely easy: just download and run it, then select the desired option on its window and press OK:
Turn UAC off
This option turns UAC off completely. If this is what you want, select this option, press OK, restart the computer, and you won’t see the elevation prompts anymore. Windows Vista will operate pretty much like Windows XP does when you login to its administrator’s account.
Switch UAC to the quiet mode
This option does not turn off UAC; instead, it only makes UAC to operate in the quiet mode. In the quiet mode, UAC does not display the elevation prompts for the administrators. That is, when you attempt to do an administrative task, you will be allowed to proceed automatically, without prompting you to confirm the operation. All other features of UAC would still be enabled: the programs will run with the standard user permissions by default, and the standard users will still see the elevation prompts (the quiet mode applies to the administrator accounts only).
Leave UAC on
If you have previously turned UAC off or switched it to operate in the quiet mode, you can use this option to restore the original behavior of UAC.
Note that if you turn UAC off or switch it to operate in the quiet mode, Vista starts displaying a warning message in its taskbar. You can turn that message off, though: double-click on the shield icon in the taskbar to open Windows Security Center. Then click on the Change the way Security Center alerts me link, in the left panel. Finally, choose one of the Don’t notify me options.
Note also that if you have used the Local Security Policy tool of Windows Vista to change the advanced configuration options of UAC, they will not be affected by TweakUAC; you would have to use the Local Security Policy tool to modify them.
