More Details: I have recently borrowed a CD and would like to listen to it on my computer. However, whenever I attempt to access the files, it says "access denied". I figured that this is due to not having ownership of the object and have tried multiple ways to reassign ownership to myself, each time though it says something along the lines of "unable to change ownership" or "access denied". First, I tried going through the advanced ownership settings through properties when clicking on the drive and then I tried running Windows Command Processor as an administrator and using the takeown/ command, but both did not work. I have heard that installing Linux does not acknowledge Window's ownership settings and am considering trying that next. If anyone has any way for me to change the ownership, or even better access the files without having the change the ownership, it would be much appreciated. I just really want to listen to David Bowie, thanks!
