  2. Unlocking Restricted Access Due To Group Policy Setting

    Thanks again for the reply.

    I followed your suggested steps, but even though the user shows as being added and active it does not appear on the sign in page as an alternative account.

    Maybe I am giving the command in the wrong directory. When I boot into the recovery environment the directory in command prompt is: x:\windows\system32

    I ran the command from here. But the new added user did not appear on the sign in page.

    I also used the diskpart and list volume command to check on which partition windows is installed. I changed directory to c:\> and again followed your steps. But again the new added user did not appear on the sign in page.

    Can you please give me more instructions on how to remedy my foolish Group Policy restriction?

    Restricting Access to Folders on a network

    Hi. We have a Windows Home Server 2011 with a network share, and 4 laptops attached to this. We use a backup system on the server - Cloudberry backup to Amazon S3, and I want to restrict access to a certain folder (and all sub folders) on the network so
    that only one particular user and the server/backup system can access it. However, whenever I try to restrict access, it restricts it on the server as well, which means the backup fails. I have tried using ICACLS on the command prompt, but that didn't seem
    to work across all the subfolders within - there are quite a lot of folders within folders, so could that be the problem? I am not an IT expert by any stretch of the imagination, so if anyone could provide me with an idiots guide of how to do this, that would
    be much appreciated!

    Thanks
