How to activate NTFS Permissions in Windows XP?

Sara Mccarthy:

Be sure the drive is NTFS.

Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Folder Options.

Click the View tab, scroll to the bottom and uncheck Use Simple File Sharing.

Click OK.

You should be able to grant NTFS permissions on files/folders now. 

If not, try restarting and check again. 

Hope this helps.
