Change File Access Rights With Take Ownership
File permission problems are more common in Windows Vista and Windows 7 than in Windows XP. That's something that Windows XP users for instance notice when migrating to those operating systems. A common problem encountered by many users is for instance the inability to write specific files like the Windows hosts file or settings of portable programs that have been transferred to the new operating system as well.
The standard way of dealing with file access rights is to change them so that files can be edited in Windows. This is done by right-clicking the file or folder, selecting properties from the context menu that is appearing and switching to the Security tab in the window that opens afterwards.
