I do not run UAC.
I run as administrator (not super admin)
As part of cleaning things up and keeping track of what's where, I found
that I can access "Temp" using %temp% in start/search, and it will open the
temp folder which I otherwise did not have access to, and delete its
contents.
After some playing and using the sub options of search, found that I could
use search to open the Internet settings folder, and delete its contents.
I also see that some of these folders I'm going after have what looks like
"shortcut" icons.
1. What does the shortcut icon mean and where (sxs?) is the real folder?
2 Why can't I simply access the folder straightup rather than using search
to bypass security (if that is what I am doing)?
3. How can I make my life easier? (I simply want to access what I want to
access and get on with my life.)
4 Is it possible to do a global change on user (security) and own
everything?
tia!!!!!
