• Problems with file permissions after restoring a backup
    0 replies, posted
I used EaseUS Todo Backup to make a quick backup of my User folder before I installed a fresh OS. When I used the same program to restore the files, it didn't change the permissions on any of my files to my new user account so that I'm technically not owner anymore. Now, I've already done the "Take Ownership" registry trick but it doesn't work. The only way for me to open my files is to right click one of them, go to the Security tab, and click "Enable inheritance." Then, I can open the file. The issue: you can't do this in batch form for some stupid reason and I have thousands and thousands of music and photo files I need to open. How do I fix this?
