How get back the ability to makes changes to a file
I have been trying to do updates to programs I have on a external hard drive.
For the last few weeks I have been trying to update a few programs; but receive a message saying that I don't have authority to make changes. I can't even delete an empty folder.
I am logged on as administrator, and click to 'Allow' changes. I have tried going into the properties, the security of that folder and it says that Administrators have full control. Although the General tab says it is read only.
I have even downloaded the "Take Ownership" program; but when I right click the folder and chose that option, the Command Prompt opens and says that I am denied access to all that folders files.
Any ideas?
