Windows 7 doesn't allow modifying the owner of a file at all.
Windows 7 doesn't allow modifying the owner of a file at all.
I encountered an issue when I was feeling unmotivated and tried to remove a Windows 7 activation tool I thought was unnecessary. I ended up installing some random WAT remover, only to find it filled with ads and unwanted files. After deleting most of the content, I discovered two files in my appdata/local directory that were protected with strict permissions, making them inaccessible even for an administrator. Attempts to delete it in safe mode or via command prompt failed due to access restrictions. I haven't used Ubuntu yet and haven't tried using 'sudo rm -rf' to resolve the problem.
To claim control over a file despite restrictions, utilize this service: https://winaero.com/comment.php?comment.news.18
You might want to think about it again if you ever face the same issue again—especially after figuring out why starting puppy Linux from a USB was tricky.
