I HIT ACCIDENTALLY ACTIVATE FIPS UNDER SECURITY/TAB ENCRYPTION DEVICES.

OK in tools, I went to the options. In options, in the advance on the encryption tab tab, I clicked the safety devices. In this you can click on a safety device and sign in, sign out, change password, load, unload, enable FIPS. I hit accidentally activate FIPS, he asked me my master password and I entered.

Close and re-open Firefox, then back to the box of safety devices - you should be able to click on Disable FIPS.

  • Unknown Security tab under account in my user account

    Greetings,

    I have a bit of a quandry.  {I was check the properties of my c:\{computer account user name}-{username}- and when I chose the Security tab, I have two entries in there that begin with "Account unknown" and a long string of letters and numbers after him.  I'm not sure if these should be there or not.  Any assistance/advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I understand that it may simply be relics left by an installation or a Windows Update.

    If you search the forum for unknown users then you will find the answers that explain it better than me.  My understanding is that these accounts can be deleted safely.

  • Impossible to turn off read-only - and I already checked the Security tab

    Hello, I use Vista Ultimate.  I'm on my home computer and have full administrative rights.  Have a big problem trying to get the recovery off the power on a personal folder read-only.  It is NOT a folder on a network or is a system folder.  When I go in the folder and click on the Security tab, ALL users have full right to make any changes.    No error displayed whenever I then deselect read only on the general tab, click on or .  But when I re - open the folder and check the properties, read-only is still active.  It's driving me crazy.  HELP!?!?!?!

    And Yes, I tried this:

    "To view or to remove the read-only or the attributes of system files in Windows Vista

    1. Click on start, run, type cmd and press ENTER...
    2. To view the syntax for the Attrib command, Type attrib------? at the command prompt.

    To remove the read-only attribute and to set the system attribute, use the following command:

    attrib - r + s drive:------------

    For example, to remove the read-only attribute and set the attribute to system for the C:\Test folder, use the following command:

    attrib - r + s c:\test

    Be aware that some programs may not operate correctly with folders for which the read-only attribute and the system attribute are granted. Therefore, use the following command to remove these attributes:

    attrib - r s by car:------------

    For example, to remove both the read-only and the attributes to system for the C:\Test folder, use the following command:

    attrib - r-s c:\test

    If the run command is not listed in the start menu, follow these steps:

    Click Start, click principally made programs, accessories, and then click Run."


    And get an error that says: parameter Incorrect Format.

    Have you checked to see if the files in the folder are effectively read-only or if the only problem is that the file is checked in read-only?

    You may need to go higher in the chain of record because some properties are inherited (see advanced security of the folder until you come to one where the special permissions list including all permissions that are inherited for administrators or your user account). It does not stick because you don't have the permissions and/or ownership to allow you to make the change.  You must have permissions to full right for all folders (both on the main page and in the special permissions list) and you will have to take possession of the records as well.  Then change the ownership and permissions for yourself and administrators and don't forget to check the box for all files and subdirectories.  This should give you what you need to make the changes.  Here is some information that might help.

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To solve this problem with folders, folders takeownership or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html. To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  • icon comments with other issues of icon and download arrow on this subject, on the Security tab.

    I'm on a laptop computer with dsl internet IE with another computer using the gateway. My os is Vista Home premium and service pack 2. I checked my settings on a regular basis and updated and scanned my system regularly. I periodically check the security settings for all the problems, and they are usually very good. However, I had taken a couple of times in administrator mode, I don't have the rights of security to certain files or programs. When I checked the security labels, I got a message that I could see the settings, but could not make changes. This should not be, as far as I know, because the administrator must have all the rights. I've never seen any icon like this on the Security tab, (or anywhere else) in the past. I went into the security on a folder tab and proceeded to bring up the list of groups and their safety features and found the icon comments soiled by a arrow pointing down. Guests (multiple) icon didn't. I can't bring up anything on this subject. I'm the only person on this computer, and I use the only admin account to do administrative tasks.  I have a personal account, which is a standard user account and both accounts are protected by Word. The guest account has never been activated. The curious to keep in mind another note is that other groups are listed under the name of my pc, but system and comments are not included, for a long time with others who are in the usual list of people or groups. I'm sure that the system must be included, because that always has all the rights. I don't have not find a way to change the icon, or find info for the customer. I searched your site and forums, as well as several other pc and tech support forums and can't find anything close to this issue, save the information on the Chameleon that MSN uses in their toolbar that makes icons from almost anything. Who is listed in my registry under MSN. It seems trivial, but I think it is maybe not so innocent, if it's way in. There are icons from two people on my printer files even if I checked them as not shared. I had checked to share, as well as the share folder normal, to see if anyone is on the network of the group to my computer profile. There was no evidence, however, I thought it would show the other computer on the local network, since the group is the same name. These icons came from. Everyone was listed as entitled to print and edit or delete parameters or printers and print on stations there. I couldn't do that. At most I would not have understood change or delete anything. In the group list, everyone was marked not with my pc name. Local service, I thought I was usually part of the active list is not marked either. System is not marked either. Here is a list of what it says:

    Administrator, administrators, ASPNET user to the debugger, distributed COM users, readers of the event log, the (acc't of the admin), comments, invited, IIS_IUSRS, IIS_WPG, Performance Log users, users of performance, (me), monitor users.

    I'm a little puzzled. Y at - it a simple explanation that I may have missed?

    In Vista, administrators have all the access rights as they did in XP.  NUMBER of cases do not have access.  There are records of point junction where everybody is seen to deny access.  This is intentional to decrease the chance that someone will change, move or delete something, they should not (even administrators).  Some of them can be modified in order to access and others require special modifications of access - which shouldn't be done without a VERY good reason (as told to do so by Microsoft Support).  What you missed is that the permissions have changed in Vista from XP.

    Here is some information on permisions and property in Vista that can help:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    A lot of general system groups are included by inheritance rather than be listed in each file and folder - that's why they are not always there - but they are.  If you select Advanced, you'll see permissions inherited from other folders.

    I have no idea on the arrow on the guest account - I don't know what that means.  It may have something to do with safety or you installed AV programs (I know that Norton did something similar with the files to show if they have been backed up).  Personally I don't use the guest accounts and recommend against them because they are too easy to use to hack the sytem (and other reasons).  I would keep the disabled guest account and delete the duplicates but one off a (in the start menu / control panel / user accounts / manage other users).

    I don't know why you can't see other computers on your local network - that sounds like a network or installation problem connection coming to redo the connection from scratch will fix (and then you can remove the one that isn't working right).  I don't know why your printer changed - rights but you can easily set them back to how they must be with the Security tab in the properties of the printer (and other settings in the start menu / control panel / printers).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How to set to default group or user names in the Security tab?

    I am trying to listen to music from my laptop to my PS3. I reinstalled my laptop without picking up my external hard drive and it has messed up the security settings in the files. I fixed it for my videos but I don't remember how. My videos has the default user in the window:

    Everyone

    HomeUsers (Robert-PC\HomeUsers)

    Robert (Robert-PC\Robert)

    WMPNetworkSvc

    The window under the Security tab of the My Music folder has these users:

    S-1-5-21-2475358272-913278994-1741288185-1000

    S-1-5-21-3176736344-3858995767-1895752026-1000

    S-1-5-21-3176736344-3858995767-1895752026-1001

    Robert (Robert-PC\Robert)

    How can I bring to the security of the folder tab music to look at as they are in the video folder security tab?

    I checked everywhere on the internet and have not found the solution. I found it using Google, but I forgot the link to the site on which I found it.

    I suggest you to change your setting of security manually right-click the swith folder, select Properties, Security tab, select modify and delete the three main users or groups. After that select Add, select advanced in the dialog box select users or groups, and click Find now. In the search results panel, select the user or group to which you want to add (for example. Everyone or something else on the Security tab of the folder of your video you want to add), and then click OK until all the dialog box is closed. If there are error messages appear during the process, please take note and post them here. I hope this help you.

  • My Windows 7 is 'Disable Java' in the Java Control Panel Security tab. There only certificates.

    I'm trying to disable Java. Their site says to go to the control panel Java, Security tab and uncheck "Enable Java in the browser". I not give me that option, as under the Security tab it lists only "certificates."

    This is because you have updated V.7 9 or less. To display this tab, you need to update your Java. Quite ironic; You must update to disable :-)

    You can either do, or go to Internet Options, open the tab programs, and then click on 'Manage Add-ons'. Under 'display... '. "Select"All add-ons", scroll to the Oracle America in the right column, and then clear each of the items under it.

  • Unknown to computer under the tab my network places - safety risk?

    Hello

    I have Windows 8 is installed on my laptop. I connect to my internet home wireless that is secured by a password. One day I opened my folder on the computer to check my hard drive space. I noticed a tab which was named, "network location" or "network location". I don't remember for sure what it was called, but I know it's the tab directly under the tab "devices with removable storage". In any case, I have saw that he had two icons below it. One was my Outlook email address that I connected to my PC. I opened it and there was just a bunch of random empty folders. The icon, has been an icon of Windows Media Player and it was titled, 'father of destiny '. When I tried to click on it, an access denied popup appeared and wouldn't let me open it. I clicked and quickly removed both my email address icon and the 'father of destiny' icon from this tab in my computer folder.

    I have just a few concerns.

    I don't know what is the 'father of destiny' and that worries me. Maybe could he have a hacker on my local connection? In my scenario above, could this fate father obtain personal information, documents, user names and passwords on my computer?

    If my above mentioned scenario is a problem to worry about, then I would really appreciate suggestions and measures should I take to clear it up.

    Respectively of yours,.

    -Allen

    Hi Allen,.

    In my view, is not a hacker, it seems that your wireless router took another router that is within reach. It is possible that some wireless setup using the same address range could get low-pass filtering. There could be a router that is set with a default IP address range.

    There is also a chance that the SSID can be the same - many people call something like home or wireless network and the chance is there that two neighboring systems could be called with the same - it is more likely when the routers from the same manufacturer and are left at the default value.

    You have already deleted the unknown computer network. For later use, please refer to this link: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki/windows8_1-networking/delete-wireless-network-profiles-in-windows-81/58e024ee-cd3b-4f6d-ada0-806ee2990637
