To access “C:\System Volume Information” on NTFS and MS Windows XP(NT5.1) one can do the following;
1. Right button click to Properties on “System Volume Information” directory.
2. Click to “Security” Tab.
//On this tab, one can see that only the “SYSTEM” user can access this directory.
// We need to add the "Administrators" group or "Administrator" user into this.
3. Click on “add” button
4. Click on “advance” button
5. Click on “Find now” button
6. Click on “Administrators” or "Administrator" user.
7. Click on “Ok” button.
// IF WinXP(NT5.1) ~= Win2K (NT5.0), one should be able to access the system directory.
// A word of warning, this is a system directory i.e. it stores the system restore points.
// Standard disclaimers applies i.e. don’t blame me IF your computer blows up.
// You only play with hidden system settings IF you can restore Windows NT based system with ease.
