How to reapply default security settings (like Setup security.inf does in XP)

Hello:

As of 10/25/2007, I have not found a way to restore the default Vista folder

permissions. I need to do this because I had changed the permissions on the

Vista partition while in XP on my dual boot system. I didn't think that it

would affect the Vista ACLs but it did--duh! Now my guest account can't

logon completely.

Per http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/bb629421.aspx, to restore local Group

Policy to the default settings in Windows Vista, run cscript

GPOAccelerator.wsf /Restore. Completing this procedure restores the local

security policy settings to their default values in Windows Vista. It looks

like doing that only restored the registry permissions at least, but not the

folder permissions like the Setup security.inf does for XP.

There is an inf for Vista named Vista Default Security.inf, which is a

Security Template used as part of restoring the local security policy to the

Windows Vista default settings. I believe this gets imported with the

cscript GPOAccelerator.wsf /Restore command mentioned above.

Is anyone aware of anything that will restore the default folder/file

permissions on the Vista partition, similar to what importing Setup

security.inf does in XP? Thank you.
