How Do I Get the Security tab in
Folder Properties?
Back to Index
First, your hard drive must be
formatted NTFS for this tab to show
up.
Second, if you're running XP Pro,
you must open Windows Explorer, go
to Tools, Folder Options,
View and uncheck Use Simple File
Sharing.
Third, if you're running XP Home,
Simple File Sharing is enforced by
default and cannot be disabled. You
must boot the computer into Safe
Mode and log in with the
Administrator account, in order to
see the Security tab. A work around
for XP Home, so that you don't have
to enter Safe Mode, can be found
here.
