Security of files and folders

In modern versions of Windows, you can set security permissions on files and folders. These permissions grant or deny access to the files and folders to individual users, or to groups of users. If these security settings are not what they should be, you may find that some of the applications you use fail in unexpected ways, or that you get unexpected warnings when you try to do certain actions that normally would happen in a straightforward way.
