Andrew just wants to open his files on Windows 10
(programming.dev)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
Good luck with opening the subdirectories of
C:\WindowsApps\
. I ran Explorer as admin, gave myself R/W permissions, even recursively changed ownership of everything, followed all the online guides... Still denied access.If you make a bootable linux usb drive you can do whatever you want with all windows stupid files without even having to install linux.
Those're probably containerised.
Sandboxed rather than containerised I think.
what was the difference for those of us who dont know, like andrew over here 😂
Sandboxed typically restricts a program from being able to read/write to various areas (think an app isn't allowed to use the network, or access USB devices, or it's only allowed access to a certain directory in the filesystem).
Containerised is a way of virtualising an app/apps so that they can be easily distributed to run once or thousands. They can and are also sandboxed to different degrees.
U can use proccess hacker to lauch for example total commander with SYSTEM privileges it's highest possible privilege in windows.
its* ~~hightest~~ highest
Highest*
Whoops! Thanks. Corrected.
