    In several other programs which I am too tired to think of now I think it shows 70gb used and about 40 free. All I can think to show you is this clip also to wonder if booting from minitools might show me something

    Screenshot is from Ccleaner Disk Analyzer - not Speccy as far as I can work out.

    Thanks.

    Hm. I don’t know why this happens. For some reason the security descriptor on C drive still refuses to be read even after all the privileges and other measures. But I cannot replicate this specific error.

    Is it locked? Is it corrupt? Need to get to the bottom of this.

    Need more information. Would you be able to download this file attached. It will produce a “c_errinfo.txt” on your desktop. Could you upload this?

    Ok here's the next result. Thanks again.

    Sorry for the late reply.

    Again, I cannot reproduce the error, and I’m not getting much out of the messages; they are purposefully vague. As there is a limit to how badly denied you can get, I have tested the worst possible scenarios and have auspiciously assumed positive results for all other cases. If the script I gave you couldn’t remedy the problem, I doubt the traditional methods of correcting the permissions will work. Yet, I’m curious what Explorer has to say about the situation.

    Are you able to bring up the ‘Security’ tab on the drive? Using the ‘Advanced’ view, are you able to manually take ownership?

    Pyprohly, Did you see my response to this?
    Yes. If the problem turns out to be a disk issue I don’t have the faculty to help you. Those reports aren’t meant for me.

    Did you see Callender’s reply? I recommend you follow the suggestion and share the results of WinDirStat right away.

    Sorry for the late reply.

    Again, I cannot reproduce the error, and I’m not getting much out of the messages; they are purposefully vague. As there is a limit to how badly denied you can get, I have tested the worst possible scenarios and have auspiciously assumed positive results for all other cases. If the script I gave you couldn’t remedy the problem, I doubt the traditional methods of correcting the permissions will work. Yet, I’m curious what Explorer has to say about the situation.

    Are you able to bring up the ‘Security’ tab on the drive? Using the ‘Advanced’ view, are you able to manually take ownership?

    1. First of all I want to thank you for all the time you have put in on this.
    2. You will see the only access I have pulling up security. All else gets no permission
    3. Not sure I understood what you meant by those reports aren't meant for me. Unless it meant that I just sent too much information off thread.
    4. I did see Calender's reply. In fact I did dl WinDirStat but since nothing is simple it seems here is what happens when I run it. Tried it installed both on a flash and on my second HD.

    When you run the setup file "WinDirStatPortable_1.1.2.80_Rev_3.paf.exe" you are asked where to place the files. Put them in a folder on your windows partiton typically C:/ and run it from there once it has been set up.

    Regrettably I can not place it anywhere on C:. Always get C: is not accessible.
