Hi,
I know that you can hack the reg for changing context menus but have never
done it for this particular entry. Maybe export a reg file once you've done
this and a script to drop it on machines when logging on?

I'm not 100% whether this would completely remove the ABILITY to compress
etc but it does remove the most obvious path to compressing.

Hi, there.

There is a requirement that 'Folder Compression Feature'* on windows
2000 or XP must be disabled in order to prohibit users from accessing
it.

What we want is to make this feature (of any NTFS folders) simply
unaccessible from standard domain users - about 600 users -, but is
there any neat way of doing it? (quick & easy, plus centrally)



*Folder's Properties --> Advanced Attributes --> Compress or Encrypt
attributes.
