| | Make folder on 2nd drive private I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate and have two SATA hard drives. I've changed the "Documents" folder from C:\Users\Jim\Documents to D:\Documents. Any users on the PC can access this folder. When I made this change on my older XP PRO PC this folder could not be accessed by anyone but me. I tried to make changes to the security tab of the properties of D:\Documents, but I am not clear on how to change the "inherit" choices. |

(It's near the bottom on the first tab that opens The only vista system I have access to at the moment is Vista Ultimate SP1 on a domain, so I don't know if that's quite accurate. Let me know if that doesn't work and I'll throw whatever version your running in a VM and poke around. Side note, if you are using simple file sharing (be it XP or vista), you get a ton more control if you disable it. -- ---------------- Andrew Davis IT Administrator WestGate Church |
