To take ownership of a folder, follow these steps:
(windows)
1) Right-click the folder that you want to take ownership of, and then click
Properties.
2) Click the
Security tab, and then click OK on the Security message (if one appears).
Click Advanced, and then click the
Owner tab.
3) In the Name list,
click your user name, or click Administrator if you are logged in as Administrator, or click the Administrators group. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder,
select the Replace owner on subcontainers and objects check box.
4)
Click OK, and then
click Yes when you receive the following message:
"You do not have permission to read the contents of directory folder name. Do you want to replace the directory permissions with permissions granting you Full Control?"
Click Yes then
Click OK
