Can someone please tell me how I get back to normal security settings in Win
XP Pro. I.e. how I can get the Security tab back in the properties window? I
used to have this before, but I have since reinstalled and lost it.

Thanks

I found it. Just typing "simple security" into Help gave me the answer. I
should have tried that first! D'oh!!

If it is XP Pro (in XP Home you have Simple whether you like it or not)
go to Folder Options - View, uncheck 'Use Simple file sharing' and
Apply.

And the disk has to be formatted to NTFS to support it
