Upgrading file permissions.

Hi

If you are an administrator then you automatically have read/write permissions.

If you are a user you can only read. How do I go about giving a user the ability to write.

I forgot to mention that the files I wish to change permissions on are all in one directory under Program Files.

If I need to change permissions for the directory should I use the AccessControl plug-in? If not, what it the best approach.

In addition, I don't know much about Windows Vista UAC so if anybody can help out on that point I would be grateful.

Regards

I've just noticed that using the AccessControl plug-in has added 5MB to my file size. The compression i'm using is



SetCompressor /SOLID lzma

5MB, surely not?
