But once i was trying to install oscommerce and could not write or modify files. Hence the installation was giving me a hard time (these things always happens with IIS they say apache is the best). Anyways the following worked for me: I selected the directory where the files to be written existed. Right Click - "All Tasks" - "Permission Wizard" - "Inherit of Security Settings" - "Replace all directory and file permissions" - Next - Next Note at "Replace all directory and file permissions" you should have the following settings listed: --------------------------------------------------------------- Administrators have full access to files Everyone can read files Everyone can write files Everyone can execute file ---------------------------------------------------------------- Note: I was installing oscommerce on my local computer so no security hassles if you are doing it online things might be a little different.

—————————————————————
Administrators have full access to files
Everyone can read files
