Thank you Yrag

I have a question or some

this is what I did before posting my OP

it did work but with side affects

oh and this was while I was controlling a PC with Windows Live Messenger 

he (Bro-law) wanted to hide his Storage drive from his kids (you knew that) part.

so I opened his My computer then Right Clicked on D:\ clicked on Properties \ Security

then under Group or user name highlighted  Authenticated Users (as for I did not see ShutUp in the list) then clicked

on Edit with Authenticated Users highlighted clicked on Deny on all /Apply /Ok

then at the bottom of the Security clicked on Advanced / Permissions with Authenticated Users highlighted clicked on Change Permissions

with Authenticated Users highlighted clicked on Edit  set all to Deny with all the Apply and ok's 

it looked good as ShutUp could not open D:\ but when he logged off and went to Horn-Dog and back to WL-Messenger

to give me control. D:\ was also locked out to. so I knew then I needed HELP. but I was able to get Horn-Dog back into D:\ by taking owner ship

of it but now some  folders, Pictures, Files have the Pad lock on them and some don't

Question is how do I get rid of the pad lock oh I also did a system restore first but it did not help then did the taking owner ship

here's a picture ok 2

and now some of the options to edit the Permissions are grayed out 

thanks

...or name the drive from "Backup" to "Kid's housework roster" and they'll never look at it....;)

ha ha ha good one   but it's not a back up it's a separatist separate Hard drive not a partition but it is named Bastard Slave

yep you guessed it I named it.. and name his PC Horn-Dog ... cause he can't stay away from the xxx sites

....and you're concerned the "kids" are going to fuck up your machine???????

Boot into to save mode and make the changes in reverse....

Now look at reply #2...........

thanks Yrag  will do that, when I can ... He's 90 -/+miles away ....

then will put trueCrypt on it

Evidently, that's not far enough away...

Keep in mind, if you can't remember sequence of changes, than give all entries " Full Control" and then encrypt the drive and/or folders.

Cool thanks will do cause 2 seconds after click on some I don't remember some..

it would be nice if Windows Live Family Safety had that option to hide the drive if it dose I don't / didn't see it.

that's way he wanted me to hide it in the first place.. at lest it stopped them from downloading a Virus (WLFS)..

will Google Full Control and encrypt the drive and/or folders.

as I use the .reg to take ownership..

thank you for your time and help

I have my doubts if I was on Pluto with internet it wouldn't be far enough away ... slower yes same out come yes..
