Just wanted to lend a hand....to grant full access for everyone to a drive, the complete command line should read:
cacls (Drive Letter) /t /e /g username:access level so if the removable drive letter is N, then:
cacls_N:_/t_/e_/g_Everyone:F (please note: underscore is a space)
I wonder if there is some sort of a policy entry that is the cause of this. I would also suggest downloading and installing TweakUI.
Then run TweakUI and check the 'Drives' under My Computer branch to see if the drive has a check mark or not (see screenshot).
I wonder if the drive itself has a proprietary encryption or formatting on it that is not allowing Windows from 'exploring' it?
Hope this helps,
~TL
