For example, if you want the whole thing to be rwx, do chmod 777 /mnt/C/* -R. I personally, would do this: find /mnt/C -type d | xargs chmod 777 find /mnt/C -type f | xargs chmod 666 This will make all directories in the drive writeable, readable and executable (necessary for dirs) to everyone. All files will be readable and writeable to everyone.
