• File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file

  Hello.  When I try to delete a file on an external hard drive on a network, I get this error message:

  "File access denied: you need permission to everyone to make changes to this file."
  I tried to take possession of the file, but there is no security or any other option to do.  Here's what I see when I click on properties:
  In general, details, previous Versions
  Under "Details", the owner is listed as "Everyone".  At the bottom of the box, there is a link "remove properties and personal information."  If I click on that I have two options: 'Create a copy with all of the properties deleted' or "Remove the following properties from the file."  If I select "owner" and click ok, nothing happens - the owner is always listed as "Everyone" and I can't delete it.
  I am running windows 8.
  I am the administrator.
  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Step 1: Open the file properties

  Step 2: Open the security option, and then click on allow list of user options and select your user name.

  Step 3: Select allow and any other option. Then, closed.

  Step 4: then open the file again. Now you can remove it.

  Hope that it will workzzzz...

• When I try to delete some folders, an error message appears saying 'you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.

  original title: require authorization of the SYSTEM

  I decided to do a clean install of the latest Windows 7 RC yesterday and today crossed and have started to remove some programs on a separate hard drive so I could reinstall their own.  However when I try to delete some folders, an error message appears saying 'you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.  I am using an administrator account, but I can't just simply delete the file.  I tried going to and change the owner to my account or administrators, close it, change the security permissions to allow me to have full control, and then I can finally remove it.  The problem is, I have to do for all the files one by one in the folder, and I wonder if there is an easier way to go about this, or if I can access the user of this SYSTEM and just delete them all from there.  Thanks for the help.

  Hello

  Not trying to resurrect the old discussions, but I'll answer anyway because this thread came on top of the list of search results when I searched for "you need permission to the SYSTEM; I hope this will help everyone.

  Note: here, "the record" as a subject refers to the folder that you want to remove.

  Step 1: Go to the built-in Administrator account, you can do so by following these steps:
  a. go to control panel > system and security > administrative tools
  b. on the left panel, go to local users and groups > users. You should now see a list of users on your computer
  c. right click on the administrator account that appears in the list and select Properties
  d. uncheck "account is disabled" and confirm by pressing OK

  Step 2: Connect to your newly activated administrator account

  Step 3: Now, we start to configure the security settings that will allow you to remove this folder which was (perhaps) held by the SYSTEM:
  I'm going to make the assumption that you want to remove a folder and all its subfolders along
  a. right click on the folder
  b. go to the security on the top tab
  c. click on the Advanced button which is at the bottom

  : Step 4 the first part to configure security settings to set the owner of the folder:
  a. go to the owner on the top tab
  b. click the button change located downstairs
  c. There should be a list of accounts to choose to change the property, this is located under the label "of a change in ownership:'"
  (d) the entry 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' should be there; If this isn't the case, then add it to the list:
  -Click on the button "other users or groups...". "who's down
  -Under the label "enter the object name to select (examples):', there should be a text field you can type into it;" type in "Administrator" (without the quotes of course)
  -Click on the "Check names" button which is located on the right. 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' should now be there _For itself_; Well, if not, then you must remove the line that does not represent the administrator account that you are currently
  -Confirm by pressing OK; It will now appear on the list of accounts, you can choose from
  e. now, select 'Administrator (YOURCOMPUTERNAME\Administrator)' from this list
  f. check 'Replace the owner of subcontainers and objects' to propagate our change
  g. press OK to confirm. a message should now pop-up window, which says to re - open the properties. Do by pressing all the buttons OK see you

  Step 5: now that we have the owner of the folder, we still not done. There is one crucial step left which is to remove permissions inheritable:
  a. Repeat step 3 to learn to re - open properties and get to "Advanced security settings"
  b. go to the permissions on the top tab
  c. click on the button "Change permissions" which is down
  d. at the bottom, there should be 2 check boxes:
  -' Include the permissions that can be inherited from the parent to this object': deselect this. When you do so, you will get a warning on the parameters of parent is not not able to spread. Select 'Add '.
  -' Replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable this object': check this
  e. press OK to confirm. Windows will warn you this time; Click OK
  f. reconfirm by pressing OK; now, you should get to properties again

  Now, you shouldn't have all the warnings about the SYSTEM do give you permission as he attempted to perform actions on this issue.
  All the boxes to change the permissions on the accounts (properties > Security > Edit) must now be enabled, and you can tinker around with it.

• You need permission to perform this action. You need PCNAME PC\USERNAME permission to make changes to this file

• Whenever I try to login, I get: "you want the following program to make changes to this computer?

  A few days ago, I started getting the following message EVERY time I try to open a session:
  «You want the following program to make changes to this computer: it lists the FF and Mozilla Corp.»
  I have to click 'Yes' EVERY time, and then it seems my Comcast home page.
  I have a PC with Windows 7.

  In addition, when my home page appears, 3 small icons at the top right do not appear. (Minimize, X)

  A possible cause of this error is that Firefox is configured to run as administrator.
  Make sure that Firefox is not set to run as administrator.
  Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".

  Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

  • Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
  • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected

  Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) folder.

• Unable to delete files and folders... 'You need permission system to make changes to this file.

  I am the administrator of the account. I can't remove the residue of some programs because of this message. As usual made all the bits to find the answer on the forum of Microsoft and other sites. None of them helped me so far. I also tried the modified permissions and changed a key .reg property. But nothing happened.

  It is dangerous to change the permissions of system, programs and registry locations.  These are tight to protect against malware that exploit the administrative accounts and compromise the entire system.

  The "residue" would be solve by using the uninstall utility program.

  That said, if you do not need to manually delete a folder, just be vary close.  For example, appropriating and remove a specific program of record, not all of the "Program files".  Basically, do not apply a new authorization to all the program files just to remove one file of boredom.  If you keep in mind, you open any hole by making changes to the authorization.

  Hi EatonmcMT,

  1. what security software is installed on the computer?

  2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.

• Destination folder access denied. You need permission to perform this action.

  OK, I'm absolutely sick freaking that. I am logged on as administrator, and there are some files that I can't remove everything. I get the message "Destination folder access denied you need permission to perform this action."

  Why the hell do I need permission? I am an administrator and it's MY computer!

  I tried to fix this for hours now, searching through the forums looking for answers, trying all the things that people give to think (as the change of ownership of the files - didn't work).

  I tried to turn of UAC, but it tells me that I have to restart, which I do, but then when the computer turns UAC turns on again!

  Gaaaah! It's driving me crazy - I'm trying to delete files and folders that I need not, they take up valuable space and they have nothing to do with the functioning of the system.

  Now I know why everyone hates on Vista.

  A lot of files and folders in Vista are unable even to administrators (unlike was the case with XP).  To remove a file, you need all rights to him and maybe same property (and these can be inherited from parent folders or their parent folders is not just a simple matter to change the permissions of the file - unless you remove the inheritance rights in the section advanced as well).  It has nothing to do with YOUR computer, it has to do with the protection of the system of files to be modified, moved, deleted or otherwise modified by people who do not really know what they're doing and causing significant damage. There are places called junction pointshttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb968829 (VS.85) .aspx which should NOT be accessed by anyone for any reason for example.  Now there are places in your own profile which you denied access.  That's how it works on Vista (and I don't think it's different in Windows 7).

  If you think you should have access to delete the file and know that it will cause no harm, so some information here about obtaining permissions (you want full rights for yourself) and appropriate (not always required but sometimes useful).  Being the owner does not necessarily give you the permissions of all rights - sometimes, you need to do both.  Don't forget to go to the Advanced section to check the rights listed there as well as on the home page - they can block you all also if you don't fix them as well.

  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/.

  ====================================================================================================================

  If this does not work, try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when the normal functions to remove Vista not work properly - but it helps if troubleshoot you permission first (even those programs may not work to override only).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
