Re: Page File

Here is the results from the subinacl

C:\>"c:\program files\Windows Resource Kits\tools\subinacl" /file
c:\pagefile.sy
s /display
c:\pagefile.sys - CreateFile Error : 5 Access is denied.

When I substitute c:\*.sys for c:\pagefile.sys I get a results back for all
of the .sys files in the root directory but not for pagefile.sys. For
example:

Well I'm at a loss. Seems everything is correct but it still appears the
system account (nt authority) does not have full control permissions on the
drive. I'm a little reluctant to pull out the big guns (subinacl.exe) You
might want to call product support on this one.
