    Hello,

    on many windows servers i have the following message when i try to create/delete/copy a file to c:\

    I have tried to fix this by changing the UAC to lowest level AND changing the EnableLUA-registry-key.

    I am trying to find a GPO-solution for all my servers and future machines.

    What can be done with Group Policy to eliminate the message?

    Thx

    If you want to get rid of that message, there's 2 solutions:
     
    a) Adjust NTFS Acls, so that a given Group gets write access.
    b) Disable UAC (not recommended though...)
     
    NO THEY ARE NOT EVIL, if you know what you are doing: Good or bad GPOs?

    Yes, but it is tricky because of NTFS inheritance... I would recommend
    asking yourself "why do I need to copy files to the system drive root
    folder?" ;-)

    Computer configuration - Windows settings - Security settings - File
    system. But if you do wrong, you will destroy your servers...

    I understand what you mean Martin ;-)

    What is the best way to do this by gpo ? (this is for a lab-environment).

    I already mentioned the GPO setting. So, just try and put ACLs in place,
    disable inheritance, make sure "this folder only" and go ahead ;-.)
