Take Ownership of file

How to Take Ownership of a Item in Vista and Windows 7


information   Information
This will show you how to take Ownership of a file, folder, registry key, or drive where you have been denied access to allow you to give full control of it so that you will be able to delete or modify this item. When you do this, you replace the security permissions to have access.

Note   Note
You will quickly notice that you cannot delete or modify system files, even as administrator in Vista. This is because Vista system files are owned by the TrustedInstaller service by default, and Windows File Protection will keep them from being overwritten. You will encounter a "Access Denied" error.

Tip   Tip

  • If you are trying to delete a folder, then sometimes you will need to delete the contents within the subfolders first before you will be able to delete the main folder itself.
  • The hidden My ..... folders are actually a Junction Point to the real username user folders. They cannot be modified since they are not a real location. EX: My Documents for C:\Users\(your username)\Documents
  • For more on junction points, see: jimmah.com: Why do I get an Access Denied error when trying to open a folder?
  • Sometimes you will need to move the file to the desktop or a user folder first before Vista will allow changes to be made to it. You can then move the file back afterwards.
  • You will sometimes need to take ownership of Files and folders created in another operating system when migrated into Vista.
warning   Warning
This can only be done while logged on to a administrator account. Deleting or modifying system files without knowing what you are doing may lead to eratic behavior from Vista. Even complete system failure with full data loss.


EXAMPLE: You need permission to perform this action
NOTE:
You will see this Access Denied with the Try Again type message when your user account or group does not have Ownership of the file. Clicking on the Try Again does nothing.

OPTION ONE
Take Ownership of Item Using Context Menu






OPTION TWO
Take Ownership of Item in Command Prompt

EX: To Take Ownership of this System file:
C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui

EX: User name to Take Ownership with: Brink
2. In the elevated command prompt, type the command below and press Enter to take ownership of the file.​
NOTE: Substitute full path of file with the full path of the file that you want to take ownership of within quotes.
takeown /f "full path of file"
For example:
takeown /f "C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui"

3. A message will be displayed that this completed successfully. This will give you ownership of the file.​
4. In the same elevated command prompt, type the command below and press Enter to grant a user full control of the file.​
NOTE: Substitute full path of file with the full path of the file from step 2 within quotes , and (user name) with your user name.
icacls "full path of file" /grant (user name):F
For example:
Code:
icacls "[B][COLOR=red]C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui[/COLOR][/B]" /grant [B][COLOR=red]Brink[/COLOR][/B]:F

5. A message will be displayed that this completed successfully.​
NOTE: You should be able to delete or modify the file now. If you still can't, you may need to reboot into Safe Mode and try this again. It may vary according to the file. Some are more stubborn.




OPTION THREE
To Manually Take Ownership of a Item

1. Go to the file, folder, drive, or registry key you want to delete or modify.​
NOTE: For example, the system file:
C:\Windows\System32\en-US\winload.exe.mui

2. For a File, Folder, or Drive
A) Right click on the file, folder, or drive and click on Properties.​
WARNING: Do not do this to the hard drive partition that Vista is installed on. It can mess up the boot files.​
For example, the file: winload.exe.mui

B) Go to step 4​

3. For a Registry Key
A) Click on the key in the left pane to highlight the registry key (folder).​
B) Right click on the key and click on Permissions, or click on Edit (Menu Bar) and Permissions.​

4. Click on the Security tab and on the Advanced button. (See screenshots below)​

6. Click on the Edit button.​
7. If prompted by UAC, click on Continue.​
Owner.jpg

8. Under the Change owner to section, click on your user account name and click on OK. (See screenshots below​

EX. Username: Moderator (Computer Name/Username)​
Owner2.jpg
Owner2_Folder.jpg

9. Click on OK at the Security pop-up window. (See screenshot below)​
NOTE: For a Registry Key, you will not see steps 9 to 12. Go to step 13.​

10. Click on OK. (See screenshot below step 7)​
11. Click on the Edit button. (See screenshot below)​
Properties2.jpg

12. If prompted, click on Continue in the UAC prompt.​

14. To Type in Your User Account Name
NOTE: If your user account name is already listed, then do step 15 instead.​
A) Type in your user account name in the box under Enter the objects name to select. (See left screenshot below)​
NOTE: For example, Moderator. If you needed to restore TrustedInstaller as the owner, then see: How to Restore TrustedInstaller as Owner of a File in Vista
B) Click on the Check Names button.​
NOTE: If the username is found, then see right screenshot below. If it is not found, then go to step 15 below to select it.​
C) Go to step 16.​
Select_User_Groups1.jpg
Select_User_Groups2.jpg


15. To Select Your User Account name
A) Click on the Advanced button. (See left screenshot above)​
B) Click on the Find Now button. (See screenshot below)​
C) Under Search results, click on your user account name to highlight it.​
NOTE: For example, Moderator. If this is for something like a Flash USB drive, you may also want to select Everyone and give it full permission to. This way you will be able to access it from any user account.
D) Click on OK.​
Advanced_Select.jpg


16. Click on OK. (See right screenshot above step 15)​
17. Click on your user account name to highlight it. (See screenshot below)​
NOTE: For example, Moderator (Computer Name/Username)
18. Check the box for Full Control.​
NOTE: For more information on these permission choices, see: Windows Help and How-to: What are Permissions?
19. Click on OK.​
NOTE: For a Registry Key, you will not see steps 20 and 21. Go to step 22.​
Permissions2.jpg

20. Click on Yes in Windows Security pop-up. (See screenshot below)​
Confirmation.jpg

21. Click on OK. (See screenshot below step 11)​
22. Your Done. You can now delete or modify the item.​
23. If you wanted to, repeat the steps and change the Owner back to the previous owner you noted from step 5 above.​
That's it,
Shawn

Hello Matt,

They work just fine with Vista SP2. Are you doing this from within an administrator account? You will not be able to from a standard account.

Re: Access denied

I have an external HD. "My Book" that I can no longer access since I got a new computer with Vista. If I double click the drive... I get an error message saying I dont have permission, but... if I right click, explore the drive I have no problems. I tried the "take ownership" link above but It lost me with the


For a File, Folder, or Drive -
A) Right click on the file, folder, or drive and click on Properties.
EX. File: winload.exe.mui
WARNING: Do not do this to the hard drive partition that Vista is installed on. It can mess up the boot files.​
winload.exe.mui part...I dint see that under properties.
I may not be grasping this entirely, so could someone help me get permission to open my Ex HD?

Hello Tideripper, and welcome to Vista Forums.

That was just an example. You would want to right click on the external drive in Computer and click on Properties instead. :)

Hope this helps,

Hello, Im trying to delete a registry key: " "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\SW\{96e080c7-143c-11d1-b40f-00a0c9223196}".

When I try to take ownership and check "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" I get "Registry Editor could not set owner on the key currently selected, or some of its subkeys". I have tried to take ownership and delete every subkey but I get the same message. Any suggestion is welcome.

Oh I forgot, I have tried with safe mode, still the same.

Hello Tremor,

It's the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\SW\{96e080c7-143c-11d1-b40f-00a0c9223196}\Properties key that is being denied access.

You will have to take ownership of it, Add your user account to "Group or user names" (step 15 Method Two - Option Two), give yourself "Full Control" (step 18). Inbetween each step, you will have to click on an additional OK to approve it. Afterwards, you should be able to modify or delete it.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Thank you very much for helping me; the problem was that "properties" had some subkeys too that I didn't check (my mistake) after I took ownership of those I was able to delete the hole key. Thanks again for your time.

Hello Joe,

Since you have the 32-bit Vista, you might see if using the program Unlocker on this backup file will allow you to delete it afterwards.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Fix worked. Very pleased although me being me I still wished I knew why it happened. The permissions on the folders that were playing up identified me as having full control so why?? Does Vista have a lot of these niggles? But thank you the person who found this unfortunately can't find my way back to your post for your name.

I can have you try to delete it by command prompt, but I need the full path and name of that folder in order to give you the correct command to use though. I can't be sure with what you gave below. I wouldn't want you deleting the wrong folder or file. You can press and hold the Shift key, right click on the folder, and click on Copy as Path in the context menu. Next, right click in your post here and click on Paste to copy the full path of the folder here. :)


I think... Computer/C:/Backup...
