"msizap" and "onecarecleaner" (wonder if they are sys files).. i tried to delete the whole folder and i get this on the screen, ARE U SURE U WANT TO DELETE and i say YES.. then the 2nd pop up says U NEED TO HAVE ADMINISTRATOR PERMISSION TO DELETE THIS FOLDER.. (which i am.. i am an administrator) now my admin name is RJ-PC/RJ... and still its telling me i need permissions from RJ-PC/RJ...

well guys plz help me want to learn abt this and how to get full access to delete this folder or any folder..

i also tried to log in as the default administrator in the pc and still same msgs...

Try this. It will add a Take Ownership option to your right click menu.

Sweet! Thanks Roban! I was looking for something like this... without having to use my Ultimate Windows Tweaker app.

You're welcome M8.

Hey Roban i am tryin to download the attachment and once its downloaded i am tryin to run it and its askin me for "open with what" option.. what m i suppose to do plz assist thanx

Roban compressed it using the RAR format. That's not the default format in windows, so you will need a third party software to open it. You can use 7Zip.

Though, to save you the hassle, I rezipped it for you. Just download the file, extract it and run InstallTakeOwnership.reg.

k i managed to get the win rar application... and uncompresed it.. now what should i do with the uncompresed files....?

wooooooooooho this thing worked like a magic...thanks alot guys... u rock.. respect to u all thanx a million... cheers

guys is thre any problem if i delete the folder called windows.old??

No. That's the remains of the old Windows, left after an upgrade.

You can delete it, or browse it to get old files back.
