Hi all.

The bitvise server is run by "local system"..
.. Now in a bit new...

When I execute now a command like
takeown /f * /a /r /d y
then ALL files+folders get the "Administrators" account as owner.
I...

Hi, I’m having a problem accessing some of my files. I think it might started when I changed laptops and restored a backed up copy of all my files on to the new computer. The old one had a FAT 32 file system with Windows 2K, and I formatted the new one, which is running XP as NTFS. I’m mainly...

A Windows Forum user, ussnorway, posted the following curious statement:
"Correct... did you know there are folders on a Windows 10 system that you as the owner of that computer don't have the legal right to look at... nevermind change (under US law)?"
Would someone be kind enough to point me...
