"You dont have permission to access" .. in RC2

[ThaWizard]

While dualbooting XP SP2 and Vista RC2 i have an annoying problem.

- "You have been denied permission to access this folder."

- "Photo Gallery can't open this picture because you do not have permission to access the file location."

- "Cannot open file.xxx"

All these happen when i am trying to create, download, install or whatever in XP and open the files in Vista.

I know I can change the ownership, file permission in security tab, but i CANNOT give permission to multiple files in Vista at once (but it is possible in XP). UAC is off. I honestly don't want to edit every single file permission by myself.

So i am asking if anyone has the same problem in working with both OS or if theres any solution of how i can fix this? :shifty:

This permission thing in vista is driving me nuts too. try giving "ownership" to the folders first in obne of teh advanced dialog boxes in the security/permissions section somewhere.
