I have a hard drive which I need to recover specific files from but all the folders in the K:\ drive are denying me access even though I took owner ship of the full drive I.E
C:\Windows\System32>takeown /F K:\ This granted me access to the drive and see the folders but I can not access any of the folders after that.
Is there a way in which I can use Takeown to apply ownership to every directory on the drive>
This worked for me, but I had to do it from a system level prompt. Running from a cmd.exe as Administrator was not enough. To do that, I first had to run
psexec -i -s cmd.exe
from an Administrator command prompt, then run the commands from this answer. – Andrew Brock – 2018-09-27T08:15:59.787
