Messed up security when changing from domain to workgroup

[Andy G]

Not too long ago I decided to remove computer from a
domain and use it with just a workgroup. Permissions
appear to be messed up on system. One symptom is that in
Outlook when I tell it to save passwords for accounts
(checking the box when it asks) - it does not stay
saved. Have to always enter passwords when I start
outlook.
Also if I look at C: properties I don't have the SECURITY
tab, however I am logged on as administrator.
Any thoughts as to how I could fix this?
Thanks.

Hello Andy,

The outlook question could be better answered by the following newsgroup -

microsoft.public.outlook.general

However, in regards to the Security tab missing, please try the following.

1. Open My Computer and click on Tools then Folder Options.
2. Click on the View tab and scroll to the bottom.
3. Uncheck Use Simple file Sharing

You should now be able to see the Security tab.

Best regards,
