Hi guys .. So about a month or so back I managed to connect a 5TB Seagate NTFS drive to my ASUS RT-N66U (374.41 Merlin). I'll post my previous discussion thread links below for those interested.
The issue I have now is that there are some folders which I created on my networked 5TB drive, but am now unable to delete. Whenever I try to delete such a folder, I get a message such as this:
Image:
When I try to change the owner of such a folder in Windows, I get the following error:
Image:
I read somewhere that I can probably delete such folder from command prompt using this command (running as Administrator):
I tried that, but even then I get 'Access is denied.' error. And yes, I was running command prompt as administrator.
So how do I delete such folders ?
