I had an issue after reinstalling Windows 10… a partition (D) and its folders had explicit permissions set during the previous Windows install…
To fix it, I ran the command through cmd as an administrator:
takeown /F D:\ takeown /F D:\/r /d y icacls D:\ /grant Administrators:F icacls D:\ /grant Administrators:F /t
Takedown: Enables an administrator to recover access to a file that previously was denied, by making the administrator the owner of the file. This command is typically used on batch files.
/r: recrusive
/d y: Suppresses the confirmation prompt that is displayed when the current user does not have the List Folder permission on a specified directory and instead uses the specified default value (y:yes).[/code]
icacls: Performs the operation on all specified files in the current directory and its subdirectories.
/t: Performs the operation on all specified files in the current directory and its subdirectories.
