XP Pro.
Since I had to blatt my HD and reinstall everything, something wierd has manifested itself.
If I have to sort some of the minor hassles on Jane's machine, I can, usually, do it from mine, via the network (Notwork?).
I have permissions set on the root of her drives, but I couldn't set permissions on her "C:\Program files" directory. All I got was this:
With all the useful bits greyed-out. Deep joy.
Before I had to go down the "Blatt" road, I had access to all of her little places (OO-ER!), so what on Earth has changed?
I've disabled Simple File Sharing, to see if that helps, and, even though permissions are, now, set for "Everybody" to have full access, I'm getting this:
Odd. I can get into "Documents and settings" and everywhere else, but not "Prog files", nor "Windoze".
Both machines have full admin rights.
Ho-hum
I've had a search, but I've found nothing to explain this. Will someone, please, put me out of my misery?
