Hello,

I know there is a tool that will restore windows NTFS permissions to their
default installation permissions. What I'm wondering is there one for Windows
2003? I want to restore the NTFS permissions back to the way they were at the
time of installation. Any help with this would be great.

Thanks
Mark

Thanks. I did see that article, just didn't know if it applied to 2003. MS
should have a script in the reskit that would do this. Seems like this
article only applies permissions to the winnt or windows directory and
subfolders?

Thanks
Mark

I don't think so. Should restore the permissions as per;
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244600
Also should re-apply default registry permissions.
