I think this is what you need. - Cheers, Tim.


To resolve this issue, you must turn off Simple File Sharing, and then take
ownership of the folder:
Turn off Simple File Sharing:
Click Start, and then click My Computer.
On the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the View tab.
Under Advanced Settings, click to clear the Use simple file sharing
(Recommended) check box, and then click OK.
Right-click the folder that you want to take ownership of, and then click
Properties.
Click the Security tab, and then click OK on the Security message, if one
appears.
Click Advanced, and then click the Owner tab.
In the Name list, click your user name, Administrator if you are logged in
as Administrator, or click the Administrators group.

If you want to take ownership of the contents of that folder, click to
select the Replace owner on subcontainers and objects check box.
Click OK.

You may receive the following error message, where Folder is the name of
the folder that you want to take ownership of:
You do not have permission to read the contents of directory Folder. Do you
want to replace the directory permissions with permissions granting you
Full Control? All permissions will be replaced if you press Yes.
Click Yes.
Click OK, and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you
want for the folder and the folder contents.
