Hello world!
I have been using XP and Windows 7 for a while now, and have been keeping my media all on my XP partition. Windows 7 added it's permission settings to the "My Documents" folder of my XP installation just fine, and was working without a hitch.
Yesterday, I tried to share the XP "My Docs" folder using Windows 7, and after that i could not access ANY of my XP files when in XP mode. I got the access denied error. I booted into XP safe mode, and restored full permissions to my "administrators" and my own personal account, also removing the windows 7 entries...
I thought that I had fixed the problems, but now when i try to run some tasks in XP as a system task, they do not start. The system permissions (which are by default on XP) are now gone. The only two are administrators and mine.
I think that I need to find a way to restore all default windows XP file permissions? Is this correct? How would I go about this?
Thanks guys!
Cheers,
James
