|
 |
There was a Windows update this morning and after it I lost the ability to delete anything from my 2nd partition
I can read from it, but I can't delete anything. Steam won't start, i can't run emulators, I have nfi what happened.
It is a single drive with two partitions
Any ideas?

Take permissions of the entire drive, all files. In file properties -> security.

Are you using FAT for that drive?

Right click on computer, manage. Go into disk manager. Post a screenshot of what you see there. One of the drives could be "read only".

What is the exact error you get when deleting?

You have more free on the OS drive than d:\. Just move the content, format to a proper file system and return it.

He has FAT as file system of the drive. Those are for NTFS file security and are irrelevant in his case.
