vista security
I've never had so much trouble with security until I got this laptop with
Vista installed. I tried to do some work with a usb drive that was on a XP
Pro system. both system have the same user and password. This user is an
administrator on both systems. When I try to remove a directory on the usb
drive I get access denied. If i try to look at the level of security for this
directory it say that I can't view the security. If I try to run the cmd as
administrator and view the security it says access denied. How the heck are
you supposed to correct this type of error. The book says to run cmd as
administrator. But that does not seem to work. If I knew that XP PRO would
work on this laptop I would remove Vista I've never had so much trouble with
a new OS.

Re: vista security
I guess I'm missing the point. why do I have to make changes to the
registery just to view or change prermissions when I'm the administrator.
What good is running cmd as administrator then.

Re: vista security
Because you are not the "Real Administrator". Google it.
