user acounts

[Carl]

Hi yall
I set up my pc (windows xp pro ) with 3 user acounts , how can i make it so
the other 2 users can't get into program files and windows folders on their
acount or anywhere on pc.
This should be posable right.
Thanks in advance
Carl

Hi,

It is possible if you have NTFS file system.

HOW TO: Set, View, Change, or Remove File and Folder Permissions in Windows
XP

Another way is to use Cacls.exe command. For exact parameters, type Cacls /?
at the dos window.

Hi,

1. Open My Computer. Tools > Folder Options > View Uncheck "Use Simple File
Sharing"
2. Open Windows Explorer. From the Folders list on the left side of the
screen, select the appropriate drive (e.g., the C: drive)
3. From the updated Contents listing on the right side of Explorer, select
the folder or subfolder you wish to DENY access to.
4. From the File menu, select Properties OR Right click the folder » select
Properties
(The Properties dialog box appears. )
5. Select the Security tab
6. Delete all the users in the list (whom yu want to deny access to)

Hi again
That is what i wanted , but now i have to figure out how to let them use
certian programs.
If i deny program files then it won't let them use e-mail. If i click a user
and click edit and under the drop down arrow there is a list of folders ,
which one would i chose so they can't access the folder program files ,but
can use like outlet express.
I will catch on here one of theses days.
Thanks for all the help
