Re: update-fix

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Ramesh,
I did some browsing through your web sites; MVPS.ORG. I followed out tip #
146 How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP
http://www.winxptutor.com/ownership.htm
it mentioned I needed to disable Simple File Sharing. When I did the
security tab showed up and the "System" was already listed so I logged off.
My Icon/pictures were back. I did have to go into Conrol Panel and change
(re-select) the Icon I wanted for the other UserID before it changed back
but it worked. Thanks for your assistance and your web sites and
information.

Brad,

The "Everyone" and "SYSTEM" groups are missing in the list. Right-click
the
"User Account pictures" folder and choose Properties. In the Security tab,
add SYSTEM to the list, and assign "Full Control" to it.

Using AccessEnum is a nice way to view file / folder / registry
permissions.
