So I have recently removed my old hard drive from the PC, bought an adapter for IDE etc. I'm now sitting there on the laptop wanting to view the files, maybe saving them, but I now have permission problems for each picture in a folder with pictures. Have the folder given all permissions, should I now give each picture permission individually? So far it works for me if I share each picture individually by changing the owner.
Oh yes release problems are really annoying.
If possible search for the program that will do that for you. Unfortunately I don't know anyone myself.
Otherwise, only individual work really helps.
You set a suitable authorization in the root folder in the settings (Properties → Security) and choose in the advanced settings that authorizations in subfolders should also be replaced.
(That means something like "Replace all permissions in subfolders with inheritable permissions")
The process can take some time.
EDIT:
Possibly. You should then test what it looks like with subfolders of subfolders, whether they also received new permissions.
I did exactly that, unfortunately it didn't work for some reason, since I also assumed that it should work
Did it work with the direct subfolders?
If not there, then I assume that you have done something wrong (possibly wrong authorization set or similar).
Regardless of this, there may still be problems with newly created files and folders.
It just doesn't work, I have all possible full access to the hard disk on the Computer tab on properties, then access is allowed for everything then in the folder for these pictures again then I still have to authorize the pictures individually somehow.
But can you then change the images with permissions? Or is that not possible?
If I give the images permission individually then I can see them otherwise I have no access to the image
I would try to change the permissions via the CMD.
Do the following:
1.) Start a command prompt as an administrator
2.) Enter the following command:
icacls "d:" / grant [username] :( OI) (CI) F / T
Wobe di "d:" you replace the drive letter of your fixed and "username" with your username.
If that doesn't work with the CMD, try it with:
icacls "d: \ *" / grant [username] :( OI) (CI) F / T
If necessary, you start the computer with a Linux Live system like Knoppix, create a new folder on the data carrier and move all files into this new folder. Then they should all be readable by everyone.
However, this only works if the account to which the images belong has not set up file encryption.
I'll try it all out again in peace but really thank you both very much.
