WinOwnership is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you take ownership of system files or folders in Windows. The process can be accomplished manually or using command-line parameters but there are several steps that you need to follow, which are not so easy-to-configure for rookies.

Taking ownership on an object allows you to control how permissions are set on the object and to whom permissions are granted.

Since this a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to take full ownership on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

You are welcomed by a clean feature lineup that allows you to carry out most operations with minimal effort. The tool was designed with an overall simplicity in mind, so there’s support for only a few configuration settings.

WinOwnership gives you the possibility to drag and drop the system files or folders that you want to process directly into the primary panel or use the built-in browse button.

It is important to mention that the utility offers support for all file types, and is able to work with directories and ACL protected files. You can also make use of undo function in order to revert the changes applied to the current file or directory.

To sum things up, WinOwnership offers a simple yet efficient software solution when it comes to helping you take ownership of system files or folders in Windows.
