Re: Taking ownership of files on remote computer

Quote:
How can I make the taking over of file ownership work not only for administrators, but also for limited user accounts?
This is in the settings that I know as permissions, and I think Microsoft calls "access rights". Right-click on a file or folder, select properties, the security tab, then the Advanced button. You'll get a list of user accounts and groups. Click on one to highlight it, and edit, and you'll get a list of things that can be allowed. As seen in the attached, "take ownership" is one of the settings. If you want a user to take ownership, then the permissions settings need to allow that user to take ownership.
