I reinstalled windows on my secondary 120gb hdd and instead of wiping my 1.5tb drive I just throw it back in after install to copy data over over time. Whenever I make a folder such as "Virtual machines" or "programs" It is made with a lock on it, so I have to manually go in and change the owner to me when I was the one that made it! IS there any fix for this?
