    Seemed like it worked but didn’t. It turned the drive into a G. It shows no data, not even the GB used amount. Properties don’t open anymore and i’m worse off… Can’t take it to a professional to fix since there is sensitive content on it. So yeah… Onto the next video explainer

    I am stuck in the windows 10 loop and I did the command prompt on your video and it gave me access denied I guess I won't be able to use this laptop anymore.

    When I type in my username and click check names it doesn't work. Says my profile can't be found.

    If I go to the specific file and do the same thing, when I click change it closes the window and opens another one where I'm no longer administrator.

  21. ValWizard

    In computer management, there is no option for Local groups and users. (

    I'm so aggravated. I have about ten different folders of photos and documents. After Microsoft forced me to change to Windows 11 (it downloaded automatically. It wouldn't let me go on unless I installed it. Instead, I forced a shutdown and called Microsoft to complain. They gave me a link for a download to keep 10 on my computer. But the next time I turned on my computer on, 11 was fully installed. It was some time after that that I could not get my files to open, and I could not upload any photos to Facebook either). So I just tried these techniques to go into Security and change permissions. I was successful with about half of the folders. But the other half opened, but the icons did not open, and when I clicked on the icons it was all "INVALID IMAGE". I don't know what I did wrong. It seemed like I got to a part where it was different, and it said I made a mistake in not listing something. I don't know what to do. I have back up, but I'm afraid they'll all just download again instead of just the ones that are messed up. And I don't want to delete the ones that are OK. It took forever to make up all the different folders into categories, and I know they'll just be a big mess again. The worst one was scans of many important documents.
