    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. Individual Folder/File Account Permissions

    First...I know this question has been asked many times since 2017.

    I've read every forum thread I could find on this topic, but concluded that no one, who has asked a similar question,

    has been given a satisfactory answer/solution yet.

    I will attempt to be detailed as I can.

    There are many, but not all, folders and individual files on my Windows 10 system that have an "Account Unknown" listed in each of their user permissions security properties.

    This "Account Unknown" has full access to the folder or the individual file that it is listed in the security properties.

    Not all of my folders and individual files have this, but many video, mp3, documents, pictures etc...do have this in their file security properties.

    I have folders and also individual files in my Downloads folder, C:\ drive, as well my user folders and also individual files,

    many of which are folders or individual files that I have personally made.

    Also,...

    (1) There is no other general system user account by the "Account Unknown" name that I can delete from my computer.

    (2) I can't change the permissions, in the individual folder or file, for the "Account Unknown" user permissions.

    They will NOT highlight to allow a change.

    (3) I can't simply delete the "Account Unknown" from the user permissions list, or disable inheritance of the folder or file.

    If I do that, then I can't do anything with the folder or file either, can't play the video or mp3 file, can't open the document,

    can't even open the folder that they are located, or delete it from my system.

    All I can do then is to go back in and acquire inheritance myself of the folder or file, which I originally had when I made the folder or file.

    This process does get rid of the "Account Unknown" user permissions in the folder or individual file, but...

    I have 100s of folders and individual files that have this "Account Unknown" user permissions listed in their security properties,

    I'm NOT going to change user inheritance for all of them simply to get rid of the "Account Unknown" user permissions in the folder or individual file security properties.

    • To be clear...If I right click on many of my folders or individual files, video folder, some individual video files, mp3 folder, some individual mp3 files, some documents, downloads folder, individual program folders or files, picture folders, some individual
      picture files,...then open the folder or file properties, click security tab...there is an "Account Unknown" listed in that folder or file permissions list, and it has folder or file inheritance.
    • I don't have a general system user account named "Account Unknown" on my computer.

    FYI...I am running the OneDrive app that came with the Windows 10 system.

    I have NOT re-installed my OS, formatted, partitioned, or changed the original OS in any way other than allowing it regularly update as it requests.

    I have made a few restore points and a backup of the OS to my 1TB Western Digital external hard-drive.

    I have changed my general system user name once, but the affected folders and files were already there, and only some of them have the "Account Unknown" listed now.

    My wife and I both are user admins with no other users for the system.

    I have NO viruses recognized by the installed Windows Security.

    The computer runs fine and fast as always, and I haven't noticed anything unusual, except once when I looked at my restore points,

    there was a restore point, that I didn't make, named "Probe".

    This restore point showed up after I installed the game named "Probe" made by the "Imersatz GmbH" company.

    All other restore points, even after installing a program, are either my manual restore points,

    or are always named either Windows Update or Scheduled System Restore.

    This is a game similar to the old Stratego game that I've had for along time. Never had any problems with the "Probe" game in the past, but I'm wondering if the game made the restore point, which would bother me, and possibly mean it has user access.

    My questions?...

    Why is there an "Account Unknown" listed for any of the folders or files at all?

    Did the Windows 10 system make it, if so, then why didn't it make it for every folder or file, and why would it do that?

    Does it have something to do with the OneDrive app? If so then why and how? Because the OneDrive app does NOT have access to my download folder, where many of the "Account Unknown" user permissions are listed in the folders and files security properties.

    Have I been hacked?

    What is Microsoft Windows solution for this since it has been happening since at least 2017?

    Thank you for your time and any help regarding this issue. How do I move individual files up or down within a folder windows 10 :)

    I'll check back later.

    ?? How do I PW protect Folders in windows

    hmmm?
    Sharing files and folders overview You can share the files and folders stored on your computer, on a network, and on the Web. The method you choose depends on whom you want to share files with, and what computer they will use to access the files.

    When you share files or folders, they are not as protected as they are when you do not share them. People with access to your computer or your network might be able to read, copy, or change files that are in a shared folder. You should always be aware that the files and folders that you share are available to other people and be sure to monitor your shared files and folders on a regular basis.

    Important

    If your computer is not joined to a domain, you can use the Network Setup Wizard to automatically turn file and printer sharing on or off. To start the Network Setup Wizard, click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Setup Wizard.
    If you both use the same computer

    You can put the files you want to share in the Shared Documents folder. Files stored in the Shared Documents folder or its subfolders are always available to other users on your computer.

    Step-by-step procedure
    Note

    If you are connected to a network domain, the Shared Documents, Shared Pictures, and Shared Music folders are not available.
    If both computers are on the same network

    You can share a folder or drive on your computer with others on the network. You can also control whether the files in the shared folder can be modified by other users.

    If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    Note

    If you are connected to a network domain, you will need to set the Access control for the folder or drive after sharing it. For more information, go to To set, view, change, or remove file and folder permissions.
    If you want to share your files online

    You can publish pictures and documents on the Web using the Web Publishing Wizard. The files will be stored in a private, online folder that you manage.

    Step-by-step procedure

    If you don't want others to access your files

    You can prevent other users from accessing your folders and the files they contain. When your computer is connected to a domain, this is called setting permissions for your file or folder. When your computer is connected to a workgroup, this is called making your folders private.

    If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
