I have Windows XP Home Edition. I had converted Fat32
to NTFS. I don't really see what the difference, but i
know I should have more security features. I can't even
encrypt file to secure contents. Is there something else
I should have done when I converted my system to NTFS?
Please help me

Thank you in advance

With Home there is no EFS encryption available, it is=20
a feature of Pro and servers only.
You should now have the cacls command available for=20
managing NTFS security in a normal boot, or there is=20
the security dialog in the properties of filesystem object=20
when in a F8 safe mode boot.
