Working with multiple Google Accounts just got easier

I'm one of many that have multiple Google Accounts.  Some of them are personal, other work, school or related to projects I work on.  I don't have an exact count but I guess I have currently access to at least 6 different accounts.  Until now it has been a major pain using more than one of them at the same time.  I've tried multiple approaches such as running multiple browsers, such as Chrome and Firefox or Chrome and Chromium but I've always found that annoying.
Even though you can technically log into multiple accounts and switch between them it still doesn't work properly and even Google warns you when you log into your second account that it might not work for some of their domains.  Current example is Blogger.com :).
Add new user
There is finally a solution to this and it is a new but well hidden feature in Chrome.  Go to your wrench menu -> Settings and select "Add new user".  This user is a standalone browser session with plugins, browser sync and all the goodies you have come to know and love.
This means that multiple users is on par with browser sync as my favorite Google Chrome feature :)
Finally a screen shot of my setup.  One user for work, the other for my personal mail and pages.  You can switch between User sessions or simply windows and see which session you are in by the user selectable icon in the top right corner.

The only limitation I have found is that I can't user the same Google Account to sync my bookmarks across both sessions, but this is a restriction I'm willing to live with.

Chrome to the Throne

Chrome is finally the most used web browser

The main reason everyone should be excited about this is of course that this means continued innovation in the web/browser space and more importantly users are now safer from malware than ever before.  This can not only benefit the internet ecosystem as a whole.

You can debate wether Chrome is more secure than other browser, most notably IE.  But you can not debate the fact that Chrome has raised the bar and everyone else is following suit.

Fixing file permissions on Windows

Access is Denied

I have been having issues cleaning up my hard drive because of files with weird permission settings.  I had endless "Access is Denied" messages and could not delete the files from the Command Prompt or Windows Explorer even with elevation to Administrator rights.

GUI Failure

I have long ago given up on the Windows Security Dialogs.  They are trying to simplify a system so complicated that you cannot make it understandable.  Look to the right for an example.  Three nested dialogs and a popup that contains too much information.  At this point you can only guess which option is right.  Add to it the confusion of inherited permissions and file vs folder permissions and you simply have no chance of doing the right thing.

The solution

Is to find a folder up in your folder hierarchy that has the right permissions and apply that.  Step 1 is to run a command prompt as administrator:

cd to the folder that has the right permssions (cd c:\stuff in my case) and issue this command:

icacls broken /reset /t /c /l /q

And everything should be working again.
