trying to find Security Tab

[alice]

I'm trying to get Norton Systemworks to stop giving me a "Access Denied
Drive C:" error at startup, and in the instructions to fix this it asks
me to click on the Security Tab in C drive properties window. When I
get there however, there is no such tab. I am logged in as Admin. How
do I get this to appear? I know of I've done it before a couple years
ago, but it seems to vanish every now and then.

If you are running XP Home the security tab is only there in safe mode.

Disable simple file sharing in the folder options tab on the control panel.

I've already done that. That was the step just before clicking the
secuitry tab.

Interesting. That is what Help & Support says to enable the security tab.
That is how I get to the security tab.
Perhaps you have other issues.

Windows XP Home or Pro?
The tab is available in Safe Mode for Windows XP Home.
Also, you need to be using NTFS and not FAT 32:
