>Folders - To Set the My Documents Folder to Private
On the Start menu, right-click My Documents, and then
click Properties. Click the Sharing tab, and then click
to select
the Make this folder private so that only I have access
to it check box. Click Apply, and then click OK.
Note: You cannot make your folders private if your drive
is not formatted as NTFS.
Home Edition: Set Permissions for Shared Files and
Folders. Boot into safe mode and logon to
the 'Administrator'
account. Right click the folder in question/Sharing and
Security/Make Folder Private.
To view the Security tab for a file or folder in XP, hold
down the Ctrl key while right-clicking the file or
folder, and select Properties. If you are in a domain
instead of a workgroup, this approach is unnecessary.
