| 72148 | 2002-08-18 07:11:00 | I see when you right click on our hard drive (and any folder for that matter) that there is a security setting which looks like you can restrict the open/witting/reading of the files. We have 3 partitions (each user has a "drive") and mine is E:\. I am a limited user.Is there a way to stop other users (including Admin) even opening the E:\ drive?? Just wondering. Thanks James |

| 72150 | 2002-08-19 04:02:00 | I'm not totally up to speed with windows permissions etc. - but as far as I know it is possible to create a group to add your user to and make that group the only object with rights to a specific directory. Of course if someone has admin rights its pretty easy to get around this.. so to answer your question as best I know - no you cannot keep an admin out of a directory. (for this type of security use pgp). |
