How do I set Permissions on my computer running Windows XP Home Edition?
Everything I have read says to right-click on the folder, select Properties,
and then select the Security tab. I don't see a tab called Security. All I
see is a Sharing tab and it doesn't have a button on it to set Permissions.
The Sharing tab has two sections on it: (1) Local Sharing & Security with a
button that says "Make this folder private.", and (2) Network Sharing &
Security with a button on it that says "Share this folder on the network".
Nowhere on the Sharing tab is there a Permissions button to press. My drive
is formatted as NTFS, and I am logged as an administrator.

What am I doing wrong? How do I set the Permissions to a folder using
Windows XP Home?

Thanks,
BobV
