File security Manager v1.8.1 | 662 KB
File Security Manager allows you set, view and modify NTFS access permissions in Windows XP Home like in Windows XP Professional. You can easily lock, deny or allow access to files, folders and drives, define advanced permissions.
Why File Security Manager?
:: Modern network-ready and secure operating systems provide us with concept of Access Control. It means the ability to grant different access permissions to individual resources (like files and folders) for different users of the system, local and network ones. For example, a certain file can be permitted to be read but not written to.
:: Unfortunately, Microsoft doesn't provide tools for controlling access with Windows XP Home version (although this capability does exist within the Windows XP Professional, as you can see here at the Microsoft website in the Windows XP Comparison Guide).
Windows XP Home provides small tool - "cacls", but there are no GUI (grapchical interface) for this tool and you can not disable simple file sharing and make available security tab if you use Windows XP Home.
:: Nevertheless, if you are Windows XP Home user, you can use File Security Manager software to obtain the control over all NTFS permissions.
How File Security Manager works.
:: File Security Manager integrates itself into Windows Explorer and lets you set permissions for files and folders quickly and easily. You can either follow the simpler way to doing this by using the wizard (which provides useful presets).
:: You can also modify the "ownership" of a folder or file (set yourself as owner). File Security Manager also provides the useful features of "secure file deletion", which means the file you delete cannot be restored and Advanced file attributes editor, which can be used to assign any (even unavailable within Explorer) attributes. During all security tasks you perform you can use File Security Manager as a fast file manager: e.g. copy, move files and folders.
:: These features makes File Security Manager the best Computer Security and Access Control Software for Windows XP Home and even other operating systems.
