Did you look in advanced permissions to if any permissions were there? Sometimes it
may appear that a user has no permissions on the main property page, but they do in
the advanced page with special permissions. If they are in the advanced page, you
should be able to remove that group from there and then readd it back with necessary
permissions on main security property page. If permissions are inherited, you may
need to select "copy to" box on advanced page which will make permissions explicit
and allow you to change. Also see link about restoring security settings back to
default using secedit. You could use the command as shown, but append " /areas
filestore " to the end of it to try to restore ntfs permissions. --- Steve
