Alright I've got win server 2008 R2 Data center. Now I recently went into storage and share manager and I saw that I was sharing my D: and D$. For no apparent reason I went and stopped sharing both the D: and D$. Man was that a bad idea!! D drive houses all of my movies. The problem I have now is the fact that since i did that retard move. I no longer have access to the files. Some folders and files i am able to view, but not all. I have no permissions. Even when I try to change permission in the security tab to everyone or myself it says access denied. Some files that I can access say they can't play because either the file is being used or something but nothing is using it that I can see. Also the files have no owner ship to them. I did not do any back ups so i can't go back to any previous states. I'm at a stand still. If there are certain things that I can provide to help just let me know. I believe I still have event logs if that helps
When i am in the permissions tab I have two accounts that say "UNKNOWN ACCOUNT ( 5-1-..... LONG NUMBERS)". At some point even when I look at the drive it shows instead of D in the properties" \\?\Volume\ ......... SOME MORE NUMBER " as an OBJECT or something. I don't know what to do and I can't pay $259 for some microsoft support to help me out. It's like it can't find the drive path or something. Not to mention when in the share and storage manager it says that the hard drive which D is located that it shows 0kb on both D and D$ instead of how much the drive really is which is 1TB. I need some good advice. I dont want to reformat the whole drive and loose the data and it still not work.
Thanks in advance.
