TC 9.0 b6 'Take ownership' function does not work

[mwz]

When select the 2202="Take ownership (NTFS)" function of Wcmd_xxx.inc, get an error message that a component is not compatible with any Windows version after WS-2003:

Tried that in Windows7 SP1 RUS (the message is in Russian then, of course) and ENU, both x64 and x86.

Yes, it is due to the fact, that MS drops API support for this function.

See This and This ...

Then pobably it is better to exclude this finction from Total Commander at all, or to call the standard Properties dialog of Windows, as for
514="Share directory"
515="Unshare directory"
functions.

Well, this function works fine on Windows XP and all previous OS.
... and Yes, this old OS are still in use all over the world
... and Yes, TC still works even on Windows 98

2sqa_wizard Well.

I use TC since approx. 1995, i.e. since the times of Win-3.1 when it was Windows Commander.
But such error messages from the operating system make suspect, that something is wrong in the program — and probably not only in this part.

The obvious check is something like (in short):

If ver < Vista then call API
else call Properties dialog

But yes, I do understand that it will icrease the size of the code...

Unfortunately there are no direct repacements - but you can use the "properties" dialog to achieve most of what the old dialogs did.

Yes, I know that: see my second line under "The obvious check" line.
As I see, that was a bug report of my perfectionism.
