If you are visiting the machines "in person" then why not just use
RunAs to open a cmd prompt windows and execute your changes
from there? If you use Explorer and the NTFS permissions UI
within it for file permissions changes, then this will not be an option,
but otherwise you can launch anything (save Explorer) from that
cmd prompt to run as the RunAs identity.
