This but unironically, Linux ignores NTFS permissions.

There's tons of quick reg edits that add it to the context menu too

Use a large magnet and swipe in across the drive multiple times.

OP, I think you should take this opportunity to leave computing and explore other hobbies

When it bugs you need to use a power hell command to take ownership. I can't remember it off the top of my head but it will work 99% of the time

The funniest thing is that absolutely nothing will happen.

Go to your drive then properties > advanced settings then "owner' tab and replace the current owner with the user "Everyone" That should allow you full access to the drive
If it fails telling you that you need permission from yourself to do changes your windows is fucked up
How to fix that? install Linux mint (the easiest and most windows like) on a USB and boot from it Linux bypasses NTFS permissions so you will be able to access all your data and will be able to copy it to another drive after you have made a backup just reinstall windows
And If you don't know how to do stuff just use youtube
Camden Young
HAHA. It's already fixed, bro. But, thank you. :)

Installing gentoo would a tually work, but an easier solution is making a linux mint or ubuntu live usb.
