Hi Hitesh,
It is good to hear that my response was helpful.
Well, I am not aware of any such API's however, you may try to explore the System.Security namespace for more feature and functionality.
Hope this helps.

i observe that FileSystemRights once changed cant not be reset programmatically through the same APIs.
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(New Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("cybergindia\hitesh", FileSystemRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Deny))
the follwing doesnt seem to work once the rights are set to AccessControlType.Deny.
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(New Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("cybergindia\hitesh", FileSystemRights.Read, AccessControlType.Allow))
pls help..

I guess perhaps you lose the right to set it to allow, as the user you're logged in as, or running as ?

Yeah, once the user that runs this code, they give up all of their permissions to modify the access rules. That same user cannot then get it back because they no longer have the permissions to set the access rules.

There is none. You said 'don't let me edit this'. Now you can't edit it.

If i set individual permission instead of FullControl than it possible to enable by .Allow option ?

You're OBVIOUSLY going to have to use an admin account to grant the permissions back to that user. Then you can go back as that user and try your code again. Please tell me you know how permissions and Windows Security works before you attempt to write code that manipulates it??
BTW: What you're doing is a complete waste of time. You're really not proecting anything by allowing the user to manipulate access rights. There is absolutely nothing stopping the user from resetting the permissions directly on these files/folders from Explorer. Please keep in mind that any code a user launches runs AS the user. There is no special permissions that code gets over and above the permissions the user has who launched it.

first i m using this code to Deny permission
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(New Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("cybergindia\hitesh", FileSystemRights.Write, AccessControlType.Deny))
AND
To enable it i Use this code
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(New Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("cybergindia\hitesh", FileSystemRights.Write, AccessControlType.Allow))
is it right way ?

ok
So sir just you guide me how to enable individual permission of folder/file
Hitesh sojitra
|
|
|
|

You're already doing it the correct way. It's your lack of understanding about how permissions work that's going against you.

ok Thank for help will try and let u know again ......

Hello,
I'd like to know if there is a way to lock an XML file with a password?
Im asking this because my program stores an XML file with personal information which doesn't have to be shared with the whole world  I don't want to do this with a 3rd party program like KeePass, my program has to do it.

Well, an XML file is obviously just a text file. So, you can encrypt it, and store it in that format and decrypt it in memory, or you can just encrypt the sensitive data you store in there. The Cryptography namespace is where you find the tools to do this.

But the Cryptography only encrypts bytes and not strings. How to convert a string to a byte?
|
|
|

Use the Encoding class in System.Text.

Password on a file?? Nope. This is stuff you only see in the movies. NTFS does not support passwords on individual files and folders. AFAIK, there isn't a single O/S filesystem out there that does.

You're big on movies suddenly ? :P

Yeah, that kind of happens when you're sitting up all night with the new munchkin because he doesn't want to sleep at all. There's really nothing on at 3:00am except what NetFlix sends you. I've watched more movies in the last 2 weeks than I have in the last 2 years.
