Abstract

The file system tries to get out of your way, but it’s still important to know how to control it. The two ways in which Windows Vista requires your attention are in setting permissions to restrict and filter access to a file and in restoring previous versions via the automatic backup system. In this chapter, we’ll cover permissions and the Previous Versions feature and show you what you need to know.
