Re: A little help from my friends!
Hello,
Well there are some commandline tool options to do this as well.
See this article's steps at bottom of the article:
929833 Some Windows Vista functions may not work, or Windows Vista may stop
responding
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;929833
This is an file example from the article:
1. At an elevated command prompt, type the following command, and then
press ENTER:
takeown /f Path_And_File_Name
For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll .
2. Type the following command, and then press ENTER to grant
administrators full access to the file:
icacls Path_And_File_Name /GRANT ADMINISTRATORS:F
For example, type icacls E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll /grant
administrators:F .
3. Type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy
of the file:
Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination
For example, type copy E:\temp\jscript.dll E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll
.
If you like working from the commandline rather than the UI.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
