Please Help - I denied myself access to my documents! :(
Xref: 127.0.0.1 microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin:59052
hey all. I made a big boo-boo. On my XP machine, we have users for every member of the family, in an attempt to make My Documents private, i gave myself permission to view my files, but then put 'everybody' and denied this profile access to read my documents. this over-rides my settings, and now i cant read any of my files! It says 'Access Is Denied' I would realy like them back! how do i do this? Is there a way to Re-Set the Permissions/file sharing? All Users are Admininstrators, and I havn't found a way to access my files yet. Please Help! Any Help is MUCH appreciated. Thankyou. Regards. Mark.P. |
