Go to &#8220;Site Actions&#8221; ==&gt; &#8220;Site Settings&#8221;<br \/>\n2. Under Galleries, click on &#8220;Master Pages&#8221;<br \/>\n3. Select default.master and select &#8220;Edit in Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer&#8221;.<br \/>\n4. In &#8220;Design&#8221; view locate &#8220;View All Site Content&#8221; on the left-hand-site navigation bar and click on it.<br \/>\n5. Go to &#8220;Code&#8221; view. You will see the following code highlighted:<\/p>\n<p>&lt;Sharepoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl runat=&#8221;server&#8221; PermissionsString=&#8221;ViewFormPages&#8221;&gt;<br \/>\n&lt;div&gt;<br \/>\n&lt;SharePoint:SPLinkButton id=&#8221;idNavLinkViewAll&#8221; runat=&#8221;server&#8221; NavigateUrl=&#8221;~site\/_layouts\/viewlsts.aspx&#8221; Text=&#8221;&lt;%$Resources:wss,quiklnch_allcontent%&gt;&#8221; AccessKey=&#8221;&lt;%$Resources:wss,quiklnch_allcontent_AK%&gt;&#8221;\/&gt;<br \/>\n&lt;\/div&gt;<br \/>\n&lt;\/SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl&gt;<\/p>\n<p>6. Change the PermissionString attribute value of the Sharepoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl XML element from ViewFormPages to BrowseDirectories.<br \/>\n7. Save the default.master.
