XP Professional has the "Make this folder Private" option
that works only for C: drive folders. I cannot get it to
work for folders on my E: or F: slave hard drive folders.
The button is grayed out. How do I protect these folders
from being shared with other users on my computer?

Thanks,

Kevin
 
Hi,

I am wondering where I would get instructions on how to
accomplish these procedures below. What is calcs? How do
I use security dialog in safe mode?

Thanks,
Kevin
 
The second of the three links previously provided
has listed steps for accessing the security dialog.
All options available in cacls are listed using the
previosuly posted directions, to start / run cmd and
then enter
cacls /?
This is a little terse, so as an example
cacls "c:\program files\some app folder" /e /t /g users:c
will ( /g ) grant to the Users group Change permissions
starting at c:\program files\some app folder
and will ( /t ) do this for all subfolders and files,
and will ( /e ) not change any grants already existing
