Windows Perms > Change owners of child folders/files 1

[RhythmAddict112]

Hi all,
I moved an NTFS drive from one box to another (win2k3) I've got directories and files that I receive an "Access is denied" message on. I can access the files/folders fine if I change the owner, though. However, I don't want to do this for ALL the folders/files. When I go to the root directory, and change the owner, it does not change the owner of the child files/folders, even though I have cilcked "Allow inheritable permissions from the parent to propagate to the his object and all child objects. Include these entries explicitly defined here"

How can I go about this? Thanks!

Verify that the explicitly set permissions don't include any DENY settings.

You must also check the box to replace permissions on all child objects to apply the inherritance onto all the sub directories and files. After checking the box click OK or Apply.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
