| Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit | Modifying Programs Files Doesn't Work. I can't rename, modify, delete or doing whatever for files inside program files. Myself isn't a newbie in Windows Vista, here's a couple of methods I tried to fix it but doesn't work. 1. Taking Full Control for C:/ (Having Access Denied) 2. Taking Any Full Control For Files In Program Files (Having Access Denied) 3. Registry Tweaks (Nothing Special) I haven't tried turning off UAC but I think that won't work. |

| | Re: Modifying Programs Files Doesn't Work. Check that in the security tab the Everyone group has no ticks in the Deny column as that will overrides all the allows.

| | Re: Modifying Programs Files Doesn't Work. Apologies for repeating myself. Have you checked that there are no ticks in the Deny column?

| Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit | Re: Modifying Programs Files Doesn't Work. I've ticked Full Control, 100% Confirmed. I think the cause of the problem is VistaOSX's Uninstallation, well, that guy's software released sucks. |
