Change the Properties of an Authorization Store

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Important

Authorization Manager is available for use in the following versions of Windows: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8. It is deprecated as of Windows Server 2012 R2 and may be removed in subsequent versions.

Each authorization store has a number of properties that can be changed. To view or change the properties of an authorization store, use the following procedure.

You must be assigned to the Authorization Manager Administrator user role to complete this procedure. By default, Administrators is the minimum Windows group membership assigned to this role. Review the details in "Additional considerations" in this topic.

To edit the properties of an authorization store

1. Open Authorization Manager.

2. In the console tree, right-click the authorization store that you want to edit, and then click Properties.

3. In the Properties dialog box, modify the settings that you want to change. For information about each property setting, see "Additional references" in this topic.

Additional considerations

• To perform this procedure, you need to have access to an authorization store. By default, members of the Administrators group have the required access, but Authorization manager allows you to delegate responsibility. For more information, see "Additional references" in this topic.
