    the checkbox to enable special permissions is greyed out across all users on my computer. this is especially annoying as i'm trying to change where msfs 2020 is installed as my c drive only has 97gb free while my ext hard drive has >580gb of space but i cannot change where new apps save to.any help would be appreciated, thanks :

  2. Granting Special Permissions

    The term "Special Permissions" is deceptive. Lots of people think that they will grant you rights that are not available to other users. Wrong. "Advanced Permissions" would be a better term. They include 14 settings and let you change things that you would
    not normally modify. As far as accessing your folders is concerned, see Rohn007's detailed reply.

  3. Granting Special Permissions

    Hi,

    I encountered an issue earlier where I wasn't able to delete a file because I didn't have the necessary permissions to do so. I was able to delete the file, but I don't think I've found the long-term solution. How do I grant my account (the administrator
    account) special permissions so I'm not locked out of deleting a folder I want gone?

    I understand if my system undergoes any changes it can cause some conflictions. I'm on a new laptop and just recently activated windows (through purchasing a new product key).

    Thanks.

    • Clicked permissions
    • Clicked security
    • Clicked edit
    • Deleted the “Authenticated Users”
    • And clicked apply
    When I restored the Authenticated Users profile, the last box labeled “Special permissions” is grayed out. How do I turn it on?
