[QUOTE="Froberg, post: 59551, member: 17947"] Hi Regedit I'm trying to use your method to set 3G and 4G connections to unmetered on some domain connected machines. We have an unlimited data-plan for them, and we're tired of seeing metered connection warnings when users are using Outlook. However, when I try to execute your commands on a test machine (Tried both physical and VM) I get access denied when attempting to give Administrators full control. The same happens if I try to do so manually. Any ideas? Here's the output: [code] C:\WINDOWS\system32>SetACL.exe -on "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost" -ot reg -actn setowner -ownr "n:Administrators" Processing ACL of: <machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost> SetACL finished successfully. C:\WINDOWS\system32>SetACL.exe -on "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost" -ot reg -actn ace -ace "n:Administrators;p:full" Processing ACL of: <machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\DefaultMediaCost> SetACL finished with error(s): SetACL error message: The call to SetNamedSecurityInfo () failed Operating system error message: Adgang nægtet. (Access Denied) [/code] When manually checking who the owner is after running the first bit, the owner is set to "SYSTEM" not Administrators. [/QUOTE]
