    Access denied in trying to use other drive as a install point for apps


    I was using this other HDD drive to have my apps installed on it on a previous windows installation. Yesterday I had to reinstall windows and now I can't set the same HDD to receive the new installations. When I try to configure it to install my apps on it, it gives me an error that seems to be an access denied error, so now I can't use it. I've tried to change the windowsapps permissions manually and deleting the folder to no avail.

    :)

    Access denied for internal secondary drive

    Hi All,

    I have a laptop running windows 10. A few weeks ago it started coming up with an error message on startup about recycle bin is corrupt on D:\ (my secondary drive). I now get access denied whenever I try to open the files/folders on the drive and am losing
    will to live as this drive has all of my work and family photo's etc... on.

    • I have downloaded the take ownership tool and it is saying access denied.
    • Tried changing the drive owner on security and it wont let me as it says access denied (current owner is listed as SYSTEM).
    • Tried changing the security groups and privileges and it won't let me, access denied.
    • Admin has full control privileges and so I enabled the windows admin account (net user administrator /active:yes) and logged in but that still says access denied. My account is also an admin account but still access denied.
    • Tried switching onedrive off as heard that can cause an issue and no luck.
    • Tried using local account rather than Microsoft account and still access denied.
    • Tried a reset of the PC, still no luck
    I really am at a loss now and don't really want to have to take it to a computer shop to get them to try and retrieve.

    The laptop was originally on windows 7 but upgraded to windows 10 fine. I am struggling as cannot find any other solutions on the internet, anyone go any ideas.

    Cheers

    Will
