I installed FaJo XP File Security Extension v0.9 (XP FSE) yesterday. The file and folder Security tabs appeared. The security settings could be altered _on_the_tabs_. I rebooted my system. It was as though I had not checked the tabs' boxes at all. I looked at the security tabs, and the checks were still in the boxes. Then I looked at the Further Information at the bottom of FaJo XP FSE's page http://www.fajo.de/portal/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=6&Itemid= The first Information listed "How to set, view, change or remove file and folder permissions in Windows XP" http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en;308418 has a Reference 307874 "How to disable simplified sharing and set permissions on a shared folder in Windows XP" http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307874 includes a statement saying that simple file sharing is the default setting of Windows XP. Document 307874 also contains this: "Note You cannot turn off simple file sharing in Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition." Does anyone know a way to get around that, without upgrading XP HOme to XP Pro? This may be a clue. When I installed "Nero Burning ROM" on my previous (now defunct) W2k system and again when I installed "Nero Burning ROM" on my new Windows XP Home system, a message from Nero advised me to download, install and run a utility called "Nero Burn Rights Installer," so all of my user accounts can use "Nero Burning ROM." The utility worked. Nero used a utility to make it work. If someone can figure out how, perhaps everyone can do it using a similar utility.
