Windows 10: No access to every USB drive I connect to the system

Hi,


I am unable to access the files from the USB drive I connect to the system, as it says that "You don't have permissions to access this folder", then when I click on continue, it says "You have been denied permission to access this folder". The USB drive is not showing security tab for any further investigation. The same drive works fine on other systems.

Screenshots attached.....any solution to this????


*The system is configured with Windows10 Pro 64bit OS.*
