• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I was at school with my External harddrive... at one of our breaks.. i wanted to goto the store... i didnt want anybody messing with it... so i was taking away rights....i thought i gave it administrator read only,but i cant access it now....

any suggestions or tools...
 
Did you 'Deny' permissions to any of the following: 'Everyone' 'Administrators' or 'Authenticated Users'?

Crash course in NTFS permissions: Explicitly defined 'Deny' ACL entries override any 'Allow' entries. If you deny a permission to any of the above groups, then your account will be denied access, as it a member of all of those groups, even if you are allowed explicitly on your account. The 'Deny' option should be used VERY rarely - use implicit deny (no permissions selected) in most cases. You only actually select 'Deny' if you want to override a user's group membership that gives them access to the folder.
 
ok... i fixed the problem.. i use a datarecovery tool and just formated the drive... took like 10 mins
