Vista Permission denied? Cant delete a damn file? I got you covered.
Make sure you have uac disabled, I have a few tips on here for that, anyways I supplied a little tweak so u can easily right click any folder or file and own the contents of every file/folder in it recursively or just own one file.
This uses takeown and icacls to own the files so you dont have to do it via cmd prompt, this is just point r-click own.




awesome!!
Now all my system files can get owned?
Cool!
simply buuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaaaah
i got fed up with all of system commands
i wanna return things to normal
now when i right click it tells me to “own” but when i click its the same as “open” command
can you please tell me how to return things to its normal state?
simply use vista manager or any context menu editing program to remove the entry. If you dun have such a program then open your registry editor (Run -> regedit) and navigate to the following
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
and delete the own folder. and reboot all will come back to normal
Where do you install it to? I unpacked it, ran each item, but it just behaves like ‘open’
All I want to do is run a third-party theme, and to do so I need to update some dll’s (http://dotnetwizard.net/?p=974) and to do THAT I need to own the original dll’s which this fix doesn’t let me do!
nope just run the batch file provided and run the reg file
should work just fine. Yeah after owning usually they can be replaced. If that doesn’t work the only other option is use a PE (Pre-installed environment) disk like Bart PE and replace the files or Safe-Mode should work too. Try these and let me know if you run into any problems.
use this reg entry to add “Take ownership” to right click context menu.
