I have Windows XP Pro which was installed on a clean hard
drive.

The Windows Help describes changing permissions on Files
and Folders as Follows:

To set, view, change, or remove special permissions for
files and folders

1.. Open Windows Explorer, and then locate the file or
folder for which you want to set special permissions.
2.. Right-click the file or folder, click Properties,
and then click the Security tab.
3.. Click Advanced, and then do one of the following:

I have my user ID set with Administrator Priviledges.

When I click on Properties, I have a "Sharing" tab but
not a "Security" tab.
What do I need to do to make the Security Tab available?

Thanks,

William
 
In explorer: tools, folder options, view tab, uncheck: use simple file
sharing.
The security tab will now show.
