How do you make one admin's system folder inaccesible to other admins??

[Bulletbrain]

So yeah... we have two admin accounts in this comp, me and another dude... and I need to make my system folder (the folder in "Documents and Settings" with your account name) completely inaccessible to the other admin ... or any other user for that matter. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Right-click and go to properties on the folder. Go to Security. It will list what groups or users have access. Either highlight the user names and then check/uncheck the permission boxes below. Or remove Administrators and the other user names completely. I would do the first so that you can easily go back if you want. Just click boxes to deny access.

The list you mentioned had my account and SYSTEM group. So what I did was checked the deny boxes for the SYSTEM group. To test it I made another Admin account and logged on with that. Tried to access my system file and was denied. But if I right clicked the folder, went to security and added the name of the test account, I was able to access the folder without any problem. Gah!!

Anyway to override this little loophole? The second method too is not very useful as any other admin can add himself to be able to access my folder.

You could try digging in Advanced for security. Maybe there is something in there that would prevent them from simply adding their name.
