Windows 10: "Error: Access denied" message displayed when I try to encrypt a folder using command prompt

I am trying to encrypt a folder, however, as I tried using the command: " fsutil behaviour set disableencryption 0 " in command prompt, it says: "Error: Access denied". What do I do? How can I bypass this? And what is causing this?

Destination Folder Access Denied

Hi,

There are times that you may run into the issue of being unable to open or access or work with files and folder. The common message that flashes on your computer screen when you try doing so reads: "Access Denied."

This can occur for one or more of the following reasons:

• The folder ownership may have changed.
• You do not have the proper permissions.
• The file may be encrypted.
• The file may be in use.
• The file may be corrupt.
• The user profile may be corrupt.

To resolve this issue, the first step is to run CHKDSK. It detects and fix disk corruption. To run CHKDSK, follow these steps:

• Press Win+X.
• Select Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the window that opens enter your CHKDSK command.
