| | Vista won't let me take permission When I was trying to replace my hosts file, located in C:\windows \system32\drivers\etc, in my standard user account Vista popped up a dialog that I needed to take permission of the folder. After entering my password, it seemed like it was going to work--until I was forced to retry again! Strangely, the copy went fine when I used the Administrator command prompt. Is this a known issue? |
