| | 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.
