Add Take Ownership Option in File / Folder Context Menu in Windows Vista




Many times we need to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows. You’ll need to follow a few steps to do this task but not any more. Download following zip file and extract its content. You’ll get a .REG file. Run the file and accept the confirmation. It’ll add an extra option “Take Ownership” in file/folder context menu:

  6. :shock: not a good :idea: to modify your registry without a backup. :eek: You should always export yur registry to your desktop or :?: folder then make changes. If find you have screwed yur windows up just reboot in safe mode and import the backup copy. You are asking for touble when you try a registry mod you found online with out a backup :cry:
