Folder Permissions

Post by Mike »

A Windows 7 image made with IFL is stored in the root of the C: drive of a Windows 7 computer. TBImount will mount the file as a drive letter, but I cannot get to the contents of the Users/<username> folders. "You don't currently have permission to access this folder." If I start TBIview with "Run As Administrator", I can see the contents of the user folders.

I followed all of the directions on the Knowledge base article at http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=581. Event though the permissions and ownerships of the folders are showing as correct, the folders are not accessible from TBImount. What can I do to fix this problem? The user needs to be able to access all of the files in the TBI image file.

If all else fails, I can run TBIview as Administrator, but that's going to be a little awkward for a non-technical user.

mounting under windows keeps windows file permissions in effect, with
tbiview they are ignored.
