What is "Ownership" in Windows and what does Take Ownership In a Click do?


As you may have already discovered, Windows Vista is very protective about the way you work with your computer. Among other things, it blocks access to folders and files in a way that may require you to take ownership in order to gain full access to them. An owner of a file has full rights for reading, writing or controlling access to that file.

Check, for example, the sample pictures in the Pictures library folder - they are initially owned by SYSTEM, not the you or even the administrator. You cannot delete any of them, unless you take ownership.

If you need to access files or folders installed on your computer and Windows won't left you, Software Candy’s Take Ownership in a click can help. Now you can easily take ownership of any file or folder on your Windows Vista computer, as long as it isn’t an executable or system file and you have access to the Administrator’s account.

The Context Menu is a list of options for actions you can take with a program, folder or file. You can access this drop down menu by holding down the “Shift” key and right clicking on the item’s icon or name.

Our Take Ownership in a click adds a new action name “Take Ownership” to this list. Then, to take ownership of a file (any file that is not an executable file) or a folder, select 'Take Ownership' from the file's (or folder's) Context Menu. To access the Context Menu,  hold down Shift and right-click on the file (or folder):

Once clicked, you may be asked to enter the Administrator’s password for the ownership transfer to occur. You can see it worked by right clicking the file and opening “Properties” and then “Details.” The Administrator will now be the owner.

As with all Software Candy products, Take Ownership In a Click is completely free of any viruses or spyware (digitally signed for authenticity and integrity) and is well tested for its advertised features. If ever needed, you can also uninstall it completely with a single click, performing a total cleanup after itself.
