  1. Granted system32 Admin to access. How to revoke?


    I went to the system32 folder (and then others inside it), and I was prompted twice along the way that I needed permission to access the folder(s) (the Admin box with the shield popped up). I clicked allow/ok, and was able to do what I needed. I then closed the file explorer folder since I did what I needed. I always double check what I did, so I went back to check it, but this time (and all times after), I don't get the Admin prompt box anymore. Why? Shouldn't it prompt every time I try to access it? How do I get that back? I rebooted thinking it was a session thing, but I still don't get prompted. Why would it prompt only the first time you try to access it? I'm on 1909 if that make a difference for anything.

    :)

    System32 is not actually restricted for read access, the USERS group has Read & execute, List folder contents, and Read access by default. Anyone, standard user or admin can see its contents. Its a few of its sub-folders that are more restricted.

    I'm just going to leave them as is now. I can't remember what other one prompted me, so I don't want to go changing permissions on ones I shouldn't. I know config did, and then one other after. I went this deep:

    As mentioned, permissions are used to grant or restrict access.

    Depends on what you want to accomplish.
