Re: how to revoke owner rights in a directory or file ?

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

In the properties of the file or folder, go to the Security tab, click
Advanced, and go to the Owner tab. Note the check box at the bottom to
change the owner on subfolders and objects in addition to the selected one.
