Give Ownership System to Everyone

[Kullenen_Ask]

is it possible to change ownership of all files in windows folder? possible? how? after that can we use that operating system as windows xp? (it never say that i don't have permission to delete or change the file)

don't do this. Why the hell do you want to delete and modify files in Windows folder? Please don't don this!

i want to learn if possible. it has lots of advantages why not. i change uxtheme.dll,tcpip.sys etc... lots of files. there is not any danger if you know what you do and hexing

Of course it's possible. You're the admin. http://www.google.com/search?btnG=Google+S...der+permissions

and

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

; Add "Take Ownership" to options in files and folders context menu.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas]
@="Take Ownership"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas]
@="Take Ownership"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"

ACTAULLY there is LOTS of danger!

Alot of malware and spyware will willy-nilly replace system files on there own secretly if givin the chance.

Plus you loose the fail-safe.

I suggest the very simple bat file called replacer. (Google is your friend)

Its only a couple of clicks and a reboot to replace files....

[Kullenen_Ask]

Is that batch file resets ownership of EVERY file? I want every file not an option on right click menu.

Every file....at least it tries to. Ownership and permissions are 2 different things. The permissions may be set on some items that prevent taking ownership. If you were to right click Windows and take ownership, be prepared to wait a while till it finishes. It ??recurses?? all subdirectories/files. The winsxs folder has a gazillion files.

save to an XXX.reg file and run it
