"DONT HAVE PERMISSION TO ACCESS FOLDER, WHY!?
November 14, 2009 - 11:22 am
I PURCHASED THE SATA $ IDE 3.5" HARD DRIVE TP USB 2.0 AND e-SATA ALUMINUM ENCLOSURE CASE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND I HAD A PROBLEM.
I TRY TO ACCESS I FILE IN THE HARDRIVE BUT IT TELLS ME THAT I DONT HAVE PREMISSION TO ACCESS THE FOLDER. HOW CAN I ACCESS THE FOLDER WITH NO PROBLEMS?
It depends on the operating system and it’s security measures. On Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/7 you may just need to log in as an administrator and change the permissions of the drive or folder by right clicking and going to properties. There would be the properties tab.
If you are using Linux, you’d have to log into root and possibly unmount and remount the disk so you have permission or use chown and/or chmod on the directories and files.
