    Basicly, I changed my Vista settings on the c drive - security so that everything had permission. I thought it would help me install lol. I have managed to install stuff now,but I want to change it back to the default - but I don't know what these are, can anyone tell me? Is it unsafe to have it all set to allow?

    Thank you!!!

    Hi

    In C: default Permissions and all are in the allow list, nothing ticked in deny.

    Authenticated users ~ only has Special Permissions ticked
    SYSTEM ~ has all bar Special Permissions ticked
    Admin ~ has all bar Special Permissions ticked
    Users ~ have only Read & Execute, List Folder contents & Read
