I have two problems:

1. On each user folder that was created, when you right
click and go to properties, the security tab to assign
permissions isn't there. How do you make it available?


2. There is a user folder with a long file name that
exceeds 256 characters. I am unable to delete this file or
the folder as administrator. How would I be able to delete
this folder?

Is the folder on a NTFS partition?

Use dir /x to get the "8.3" form of the file name, then use del "8.3
filename"
