Hi, all--
This is probably a newbie question: I haven't had a chance to really
learn Windows 2008 yet.
I host some Windows 2003 file servers on which users sometimes share
executable files along with their data files. We're looking at moving
to Windows 2008, but it seems that whenever a folder contains an
executable file, some form of write-protection is applied to the folder,
affecting administrators as well as users. My "effective permissions"
are 'Full Control', but when I try to overwrite a file in the folder I
get "access is denied." I've heard that this is a "feature" of Windows
2008, to prevent malicious overwriting of executable files. Is there a
way to get around this, or turn it off?
Thanks!
--Bill.
