Hi

I have a computer that the hard drive is shared across a
small network. However, one of the folders isn't, and
when I right click on the folder to set sharing I am
unable to share the folder. This is causing problems
during backup, basically this folder isn't being backed
up due to 'permission error'. How do I fix this?

The computer is running XPhome.

Greetings:

The administrator is the default owner of files and folders, if you couldn't
change permissions
to that folder, someone else must be the owner therefore you must take
Ownership.

Click on the link bellow and follow the instructions to take Ownership the
folder.

To grant yourself special permissions in case you still can't change the
folder's security .
