In Windows 7 Or Vista when we try to edit or delete a system file it may show an error message as shown below. Sometimes we need to remove a system file which we consider it useless, for example mfpmp.exe etc. we need to take ownership of the file in order to rename it or delete it.
Follow these simple steps to take ownership of the file.
Step 1: Open command prompt (Press Start+R, Type cmd and Enter).
Step 2: In command prompt, type: takeown /f (Full path of the file and file name) and press Enter
Example: takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\mfpmp.exe
Step 3: Again in command prompt, type:
icacls (Full path of the file and file name) /grant (user name):F and press Enter
For example, icacls C:\Windows\System32\mfpmp.exe /grant DENNIS:F
Now You Can delete or rename the file. If you still can't, you may need to reboot and try again. This is one technique for taking ownership for any file.

Search-and-destroy Antispyware.
Have you ever tried Search-and-destroy Antispyware? If you answered no, then you should give it a try. Over the years I have used many different types of antispyware and this is one of the best that I have ever tried. I was surprised and delighted to find that I could purchase it for a lower price than I could buy Norton and other similar scans that produce the same results. That makes it even better. Antispyware solution from Search-and-destroy can find the same kinds of bugs as these more expensive programs and is easy to get. Just click here http://www.Search-and-destroy.com and you can see how well it really works for yourself.
