I have windows XP Home and as an administrator I have
full access.
However other USERS don't have access to certain files I
have downloaded or are unable to execute files they have
downloaded themselves. All other users have limited
accounts. I have rebooted in safe mode and on selecting
C: properties ensured that USERS have full control in the
security tab, I have also checked this is the case with
the particular files and programs they are unable to
access. The message they get when trying to access from
their account is you do not have enough priviliges,
contact your administrator. I have also tried changing
one of these accounts to administrator from my own
account but the same happens.
Is there anywhere I can get a definitive explanation of
how to set up access for specific program access from
within safe mode. The above has not always been the case
and I am sure it is something I have adjusted in safe
mode.

Regards,
Greg.
 
Greg,

once check the advanced security options in C drive properties Check the
button "apply these changes to subfolders and files", NTFS file formatted
disks not allowed users to admin area. Even some applications and components
need admin privileges for running because they need reg.editing and system
file modifications for application processing's. Once check your local
policies settings in admin tools located in control panel.
