    Transfer Storage Pool from one installation to another


    This is on windows 10 Pro machine:
    I had a "bad" install of windows 10 1507(I think) and I just could never get it to update, nothing would ever work. Microsoft gave me the "solution" of re-installing windows. I finally did on a 2nd hard drive, I know have 1803 on the same machine.

    I have a 4 drive storage pool with single parity from the original machine. When I first reattached the drives after install they showed up, but only some of the folders are accessible. Some of the folder ask for administrative privileges to open, I agree, the machine will think and then allow access from there on forward.

    Other folders will deny access, disconnect the pool (it wont show up in This PC anymore) and managing storage spaces will not allow it to be brought online. I have tried taking owner ship but it runs into specific files it cannot change the permissions on. Once the pool is disconnected I cannot get it reconnected. I unplug my 1803 hard drive and plug in the old install from the 1503, boot, shutdown, swap back in the 1803, boot and it just shows up.

    Is there anything I can do to just wipe all permissions from files?

    :)

    Not happy with Storage Pools.

    New computer and upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7. I created a storage pool using 2 extra hard drives. It worked fine but I was unaware that by creating this pool I would lose the independent use of my files on Drive C. My normal Library files are
    now mirrored with the 2 extra drives I used to create the storage pool. I thought my C Drive (Library-Documents, Pictures, Videos, Music, and Downloads) would stay separate from the storage pool and I could just copy files to my Storage Pool and delete them
    from my C: Drive if I wanted to.

    I hope I'm explaining myself sufficiently. In other words, I thought creating a Storage Pool made 2 extra hard drives into one and you could copy files from the C: Drive when you wanted. Also, be able to delete files from the C: Drive in order to not fill
    it up so much. My C: Drive is a 512 GB SS drive. My 2 extra hard drives are 3TB each standard 7200 RPM SATA hard drives.

    If this is how this works, I think I would rather have my drives back the way they were. Is there a way to reverse the Storage Pool?

    Thanks.
