authenticated users issue in win 7

hi, i just messed up authenticated users permissions on my my data drive (d drive) in win 7 ultimate while learning. I wanna restore it to default authenticated user permissions. i have three partitions. 1: System (win7:c), 2: Data (d), 3: Second System (win 7: e). I got two accounts: 1 default windows admin account created during installation. 2 standard user account that I created myself after. I messed up the permissions from standard user account. I was supposed to change it for user account.

At this stage I just want to know what are the default authenticated users permissions in win 7 for data drive??????????

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

Authenticated Users & Everyone unable to apply permission


Hi

When applying permission to folders for Authenticated Users & Everyone the system says - access denied part way through applying them.

Authenticated Users has no permissions at all and can't apply, and Everyone when created and the permission applied also denied.

on my other PCs I have no problem in doing both actions.

What is the fix?
