Execute permissions (see Figure 13-21).

Figure 13-21 Here are your permissions.

All versions of Windows have inheritance turned on by default, which

most of the time is a good idea. If you access a folder’s Properties dialog box,

click on the Security tab, and then click the Advanced button, you’ll see a

little checkbox that says Include inheritable permissions from this object’s

parent. If you wanted to turn off inheritance, you would just uncheck this

box. Don’t do that. Inheritance is good. Inheritance is expected.

NOTE The Deny checkbox always overrides the NTFS inheritance.

If you look closely at Figure 13-22, you’ll see that there are several

grayed-out NTFS Allow permissions. That’s how Windows tells you that the

permissions here are inherited. Grayed-out checkboxes can’t be changed, so

what do you do if you need to make a change here?
