How to restrict other users to access a local drive in FAT format in windows 8

I have a windows 8 PC with two hard disk partitions: one is in NTFS and FAT32. I want the FAT32 drive is not not accessible to any other user unless the administrator account. I tried to change the permissions, but ACL is not available for FAT systems. I don't want to format the drive to NTFS. Please suggest a way to deny access to that drive other users, or a way to make the player invisible to users.

Hi Surya,

You can use BitLocker Drive encryption to protect your files on a disc. BitLocker can help the hacks to access the files on the system, that they rely on to discover your password, or to access your drive by physically removing from your PC and install it in another. You can always connect to Windows and use your files as you normally would.

I suggest you to see the following link for more information on Bit Locker.

Post us the results after trying the steps above.

  • How to block other users to access your folders in user name?

    For my own personal safety

    How can I block my user name folders of other users on my computer and my network without my account corrupt on me?

    I tried to do for some time now, and somehow something always corrupts on me.
    First of all, I went into my username, properties, security and denies access to anyone else, but then I somehow, it corrupt on me.
    So I have that challenge by creating a new account and transferred all my data on the
    Then I have my new username of another user account click right and shared with anyone...
    but then I couldn't access it either so I unstapled who.
    Now, I'm at square one...
    Can someone help me please?

    Unfortunately, they are admins and Yes at the start they received rights but is there a way I can cancel that...

    and that is how should I go about setting up as the encryption?
    Third, they don't go as deep into the search for something. The problem is, if its there they go out. If not, no probs. So, how can I block em to get addition by clicking on properties and set the folder that hidden?

    If they stay admin users, nothing you can do other than encryption technically.  And if they go poking around and either don't know what they do (or do and are cruel) while they could spoil encrypted files you have and your ability to access them once again (unless you are wise enough to save the external encryption key).

    All you have to do is enter and change their user accounts to Plains old standard users instead of administrators (account type).  They will no longer be able to go anywhere on the computer, they will not be able to install things - the scale of the system and it is possible that some things might stop working for them depending on how some programs installed.

    If it were me - I create two administrative accounts, password protect and remove all others of the Administrators group.  No one should use the computer every day as an administrator.  (Why two?  In case one becomes corrupt or something else happens).

  • Prevent other users to access my result of report of process scheduler

    I use a work (containing 1 SQR program) you use recurring to run every day at 01:00.

    What device is best to use to restrict users to take actions like (STOP or HOLD or CANCEL) that can affect my process waited for pace at 01:00 the next day?
    And how to configure to allow the latter ONLY and user_B to see my report? The rest should not see.

    The place to define what output users can see is defined in the process profile in the group box allows to process request

    + This section allows you to adjust the level of access rights with other users to view and update process queries that are started by users in a specific profile. Display and update rights can be changed of owner, all, or none. The default value allows process asks to be read by all and updated only by the owner. If you view by owner, no one else can view the status of the process in process monitor. Make the necessary changes to user rights. +

  • How to stop other admins to access files

    I was wondering if other admins on my computer can access my files (my user account is admin also)? If so, how can you stop other administrators to access your files?

    Thanks :)

    With administrator privileges, you can access any file, which is that of an administrator account.  The only way to stop other accounts is to make the non-administrateurs and limit them to their files only.

  • How to avoid other users delete my database?

    I created a database and I don't want other users to delete my database.
    So, how to restrict privileges to other users on my database?

    SYS can always destroy the database and there is no way around that.
    You should review if you allow other users to connect as SYS.
    This is clearly undesirable to 100%.

  • How to do a HTM page on my local drive?

    I have HTML static pages on my hard drive that contain my stories I regularly update and publish a story accommodation site via FTP. I have a page of links like this on my desk so I can see my pages locally before I their FTP to the site online. I used to be able to just click on the links to see the pages locally:

       <A HREF="file:///c:/my web sites/my stories/index.htm">
    

    Since last week, Firefox has been blocking my access to these pages and redirects me to Google. I edited this page and changed the links, what worked for a week:

       <A HREF="file:///c:/my%20web%20Sites/my%20stories/index.htm">
    

    Now, Firefox doesn't let me load my pages in all. Should what security settings I change to see my web pages on my local drive?

    FWIW, Chrome and Internet EXPLORER let me go to my web pages locally to my links page. But I love Firefox and would Hare having to switch to Chrome or Internet EXPLORER.

  • When you try to access an external drive shared by MAC from Windows, I get an error Code: 0 x 80070035 - the network path was not found

  • How can I prevent users from access to my hard drive from backup to the enclosed address?

    I have a HD attached used only for backup. When I change the guest user attached the HD content is accessible. I tried to change the permissions for the disk 'all', using the information, 'no access' window (without blocking) that seemed to make the case, but a quick search gave terrible warnings about changing permissions, so I came back to the unsatisfactory "read only". Change return 'each' to 'No access' would be a bad move.  If so what can restrict the guest access to the HD (besides of course the disconnection of the latter!) attached.

    You can encrypt the back upward, then it will be password protected.

  • How to prevent a user to access one particular project

    Hello
    We have two business units in our society. Under each operating unit, there are few projects.
    We have created two forms - one for each OU the access project responsibilities and assigned respective profile of operating unit to each of them.
    Now, if a user is assigned the profile option - 'PA cross project user - updated' = Yes, so he can see all projects using the above responsibilities.
    But we want to restrict him to see a particular project using the responsibility above.
    Can someone let me know which profile option should I use to do.
    Concerning
    Hawker Hunter

    Hello

    You must set the options of profile - following
    PA: Cross project user - setting a day = No,
    PA: Cross project user - view = no.

    So the user only will be able to view the project, he is assigned to as a key member.
