   I'm not sure if anyone here has put 2 and 2 together, but most of what Rizone does is create a really nice GUI for a script.
   For instance, take this "Take Ownership program"...
   
   If a person were to copy and paste what's below into Notepad, save it as "Take Ownership.REG" (without quotes) and then run it, it would do the SAME EXACT THING as this "program" without actually installing anything!!
   
   Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
   
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas]
   @="Take Ownership"
   "NoWorkingDirectory"=""
   
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas\command]
   @="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"
   "IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"
   
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas]
   @="Take Ownership"
   "NoWorkingDirectory"=""
   
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas\command]
   @="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
   "IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
   
   Now, for those that don't believe what I've written, how about educating yourself a little more:

   This script is nothing more than Computing 101... you guys should have known better.
   
   As for Rizone and my "3 Star" rating instead of a ZERO (which it may actually warrant), ...they do make nice Graphic User Interfaces for people that may not know anything about computers.

   Brilliant idea, works too.
   
   After using this program for a while I believe it has to be the best idea since the invention of the TV remote control. Saves hours fiddling with settings. 100 billion stars.
   
   Re: Psychlone, have you considered the millions of people who could never create a script for taking ownership. just as I would guess you are unable to do a heart lung transplant, design a suspension bridge or a formula 1 engine & gearbox, etc.etc.
   
   Well done that you can do scripts etc. it but try to be less conceited next time as everyone we know knows things we do not.
   I look forward to using the operating system you have built which will be far in front of Windows 7/Linux.
   
   When is the release date of the final?

   I hate spending the time to change my folders to me being the owner. I am about to test this on a VPC and see if it saves me time, without any spyware.
   
   The idea is worth 5 stars, and I will re-rate it in a bit after some testing!
   
   After testing it, I have found this to be my next favorite tool! Saves so much time and sooooooooo damned easy to use!
