Take Ownership of Foler

[DreR7]

So, we have a file server.... there is a specific folder on there that will not allow me to take ownership in anyway shape or form.

 

I have tried just about every trick in the book i know, using takeown, using icacls, using psexec but i sill get access denied. 

 

Does anyone know of any other way to take ownership? 

 

Thanks

I am the Admin - i have even tried running cmd as the local system account on the FS but still access denied

Check the permissions of the parent folders??? Only thing I can think of right now.

Hey there thanks for responding - have tried that at the parent dir

 

even at the root drive level... applies recursively to all dir, sub-dirs and files except for that one folder

Disable inheritance, that's probably the issue here.

Hi Paul,

 

Already tried the disabling inheritance and explicitly defining permissions see attached - same error 

 

thanks
