Posted February 13, 201311 yr FPCH Admin I am a local administrator and I am trying to take ownership of an external hard drive. The drive is NTFS. It currently says the owner of the drive is unavaible. I cannot open the drive and I receive E: is not accessible. Access is denied. When I try to change the permissions it says I do not have rights to change permissions and when I try to take ownership of the drive I receive E: is not accessible. Access is denied. My user uses this drive to switch back and forth between two computers on different networks. The one computer is a on a FQDN and other is a stand alone however he uses his same CAC to log onto both systems. Neither of these machines can see the owner. I am at a loss anyone run into this? The drive is completey useless unless I can figure this out. I also tried formating the drive. Thank you in advance for any advice anyone can give. v/r Vince View the thread Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
