Right click on the file and go to Properties. There should be a Security tab where you can change the permissions.

What user do I change it for though?

what are you trying to do? i'm not so familiar with WAMP - but this link (http://www.aota.net/Script_Installation_Tips/changemode.php4) may help a little to explain permissions and chmod

Those are for Unix permissions ;p.
Thanks for the effort though :).

i know that it's for unix... the link was to hopefully develop a further understanding of permissions.
i believe that you can use chmod in the windows command prompt though... i think that it works the same way... but i can be wrong about that.

WAMP is apparently
Windows
Apache
MySQL
PHP
as far as your question, its a bit vague... what document (or whatever) says you need to change your permissions and for what reason? if we know what youre trying to do, it will be easy to direct you in how to do it.

this is the correct answer. the guy asking "who do i change it for" is an unanswerable question because we have no idea what hes supposed to change it for.
anyone who needs further help in this issue needs to be able to explain what permissions they need to set and for who. if they cant do that, then need to provide a link to whatever they are reading that says "change the permissions". if you cant do either, it looks like youll be stuck with a permission-less WAMP.
also, you cant use direct unix permission commands in windows. they simply arent recognized. however, you can set windows permissions to give the type of access that unix can provide.
lastly, if there is no security tab when you do what was quoted above, then open explorer, click "tools" and then "folder options". find the option that says "use simple folder permissions" (or something like that) and uncheck it. windows will complain a bit, so tell it to shut up and do what you told it (this is xp im talkin here). then youll have your security tab.

first of all
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAMP
this is the correct answer. the guy asking "who do i change it for" is an unanswerable question because we have no idea what hes supposed to change it for.
I think a valid answer could easily come from someone that acutally uses this package.. or anything similar to it
anyways.. now that you know wamp is actually an apache server this should be selfexplanatory but Im going to eplain it anyway: I have a php script that needs to access a folder and write a file in it.. in order for the script to do that, the rights of the folder need to be 777 meaning write permissions for owner group and all.
meanwhile I installed ubuntu linux in a vmware machine and its all good
cheers
ps: as far as I know the apache server doesnt recognise permitions set in windows
