When to Use
When reinstalling the system.
Steps
- Right click on the drive.
- Open the "Security" tab.
- Click on the "Advanced" button at the bottom.
- Click on the "Change" link next to "Owner", and set the owner to "Administrators".
- NOTE: This is "Administrators" and not "Administrator". The "Administrator" account is a built in account, that is disabled by default. Setting it to this account may appear to work, but won't show up properly if you double check it.
- Check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" option.
- In the Permissions tab below, delete all of the options here.
- To do this, select one of the entries, and click the "Remove" button. Repeat this for ALL of the entries, until you've removed them all.
- Click on the "Add" button.
- Set the "Principal" to "SYSTEM", and check "Full Control", and hit "OK"
- Click on the "Add" button.
- Repeat the above for "Administrators", as well.
- Click on the "Add" button, again.
- Set the "Principal" to "Users" and give it the "Read & Execute", "List folder contents" and "Read" permissions. and hit "OK".
- Note: If you want unrestricted access with no UAC prompts or permission issues, use "Full Control" for "Users" instead.
- Check the "Replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object" option underneath.
- Click "OK", and agree to all of the prompts that it shows.
Notes
- This may take a while to complete if you have a large pool, a lot of small files, or both. This can take upwards of an hour, as it has to apply both sets of settings to each and every file on the disk.
- This may yield UAC prompts and permissions issues, as you may only have read only privileges. This is intentional, as this is identical to a newly formatted disk. *:You can change the permissions, as needed. Either by adding specific user accounts, or by setting groups (like the "Users" group).
- This may corrupt the Recycle Bin on each disk, as these require special permissions. This is normal, and expected, and doesn't actually cause any real harm.
