Restoring permissions on Windows 2008
- by Andrey
I have played with folder permissions due to SVN not being able to write to a folder and now I got into a state where I go to any folder of C: drive in Windows Explorer and when I right-click it takes 30 seconds to show the context menu and it just hangs the window after that.
It definitely has something to do with permissions as it was all working fine until I started tweaking permissions about an hour ago.
My login belongs to two groups Users and Administrators. I changed ownership of C drive to Administrators group and I think it screwed everything, but I can't change it back because I don't even remember what it was :) Oh, and only Administrators group has access to drive C now.
Any way to reset permissions to some previous state or some workable state?
