Cannot Access HDD No Administrator Rights
I have a Windows 10 system with a Spanned Logical drive consisting of two HDD's.
Recently, I had to change my user profile to a new one (the original profile became corrupt).
I reconfigured the new user as the main user with administrator rights (using the hidden administrator account) and deleted the old user profile.
I transferred the default user location for videos to my spanned drive (K:)
I transferred other user locations to my data-drive (E:)
Now, I am getting a variery of errors, linked to access of the E:- en K:-drives. As an example, iTunes reports an error that I have no privilliges to write to the (music-)folder. When I launch iTunes 'as administrator' there is no problem.
When transferring files to the K-drive Windows Explorer kicks in UAC and asks for permission every time. It is also noticeable slower doing file transfers.
I read about 'taking ownership' (takeown....), which could solve this issue? I changed ownership of my E:-drive to myself, but that did not resolve the issue. I used the properties window of the drive to accomplish that.
Can I change ownership for a spanned drive as well? Currently, the owner of the drive is SYSTEM. Should I use the line command Takeown instead of using the Properties window?
Any advice is very much appreciated
