I gave you a link. I don't remember how that
worked out. I've used it myself to remove
restrictions from all C files and even was able
to delete from winsxs with abandon.

Aside from that, why not just set up the
Administrator account and be that user?
Also, as I mentioned before, you can create
FAT32 data partitions where file restrictions
can't work. Anything copied/moved to FAT32
will be stripped of leg irons.
