Need access to all folders from both sides of dual boot

[Peter]

I have triple boot 2 x XP Pro and Vista Ultimate. I have little problem
accessing folders in any drive from XP but the way around is often extremely
difficult. I've disabled UAC but it makes no difference.
What makes matters worse is if I give myself permission from Vista to look
at an XP folder, then I have to go through the whole permission thing again
when I return to XP.
Is there any way of setting permissions for both that actually works?
If so, how...thanks!

This is a problem I haven't seen as of yet. I can download a program while
in Vista. I subsequently boot into Windows XP and install the program in XP.

Could it be where you are saving things to?

I have drives and partitions that are available when booted into either
system and the files are accessible from either system.

It wasn't software that I was worried about. My XP is on C: and I have
backups in F: and some on my external drive V:. XP can access those and my
Vista folders with no restrictions.

When I boot into Vista I can access most folders but inexplicably it will
refuse permission for a few. I then have to give myself ownership, which
means once I'm back in XP I have to take back ownership in order to view the
darn things. It's totally stupid.

Hi,

Just to mention, did you try giving Everyone group - Full access to these
folders ?

abc.

Yes and I still got the problem...with some sub-folders.
