Taking Ownership usually isn't sufficient, you then have to grant
yourself full control. However, with an Enterprise OS, shouldn't you use
a domain account, and then have the same user and permissions?

I’ve come across this issue many times before and don’t really have an
easy way to resolve.
System has two hard disks – a C drive and a D drive.
D has all the data, C is the OS and page.
C drive goes bad, so it is replaced, OS is reinstalled clean (Windows 10
Enterprise)
After taking ownership of the D drive and everything below it, there are
still lots of folders that won’t open or allow reads or writes.
Even though effective permissions says I have full access to folders – I
receive permission denied errors and can’t seem to figure out how to get
the access back.
Permissions on D are for previous OS – so there are a lot of GUID users
in there with no user names.
Is there an easy script I can run (cmd or bat) that will delete all the
permissions on the D drive and reset the ownership of every object? The
GUI doesn’t seem to work properly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
