Taking ownership of files in Windows Vista

There are 2 Ways for doing this:

1.TakeOwn
TakeOwn.reg adds a Take Ownership Context Menu Item to all files and folders.
It opens an Elevated Command Prompt which recovers full access to the selected file /
directory, sub directories and their content.
You can access the Context Menu Item by holding down Shift + right-click on a file or folder.
If you want to access the Take Ownership Context Menu Item on an exe file, you must merge
"RunAsAdmin_Exe-.reg"; this reg file removes the "Run as Administrator" Context Menu Item
from all exe files (they both use the runas key).
Merge "RunAsAdmin_Exe+.reg" if you want to restore the "Run as Administrator" Context Menu Item.

Install: Merge TakeOwn+.reg
Uninstall Merge TakeOwn-.reg

2.To take full ownership:
1. Right click file, select properties.
2. Hit security tab, select advanced
3. Click owner tab, the hit edit (accept the UAC pop-up box)
4. Select your username, click OK, accept the pop up box, then OK out of all dialogue boxes

To take full control
1. Right click file, select properties.
2. Hit security tab, then click on your username.
3. Hit edit, then click on your username on the pop up screen
4. Check the box marked "full control" under the allow heading
